Top pick: #3 (A PRETTYDIXIE) (2-1) - Daughter of "Dixie Union" has already proven that she can compete at this trip, which many of the others will be attempting for the first time. She has fine early speed, draws just off the railo, and is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #1 (Raven Rise) (8-5) - Much improved in her second start, filly charged down the center of the track and came up a neck short goung 6.5 furlongs at this level Nov. 18. Trainer John Kimmel is having a fine year and he'll be stretching this Broman home-bred out in distance.
3rd pick: #7 (My Favorite Two) (6-1) - She ran very wide last out in the same race as "Raven" and finished third, just over two lengths back of that rival. Improving and the stretch-out in distance should be a plus for her.
