Top pick: #5 (SUSTAINABLE) (5-2) - Filly by "Forestry" has been freshened up since showing excellent early speed in her first pair during the early fall at Belmont. eavily bet in both, trainer Kiaran McLaughlin has her training nicely at Belmont and $200K yearling is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #2 (Sun and Moon) (2-1) - She may go favored here off a near miss racing at this level and distance on Nov. 20. Stalker has worked four times since, breaks just off the rail, and is a strong win candidate.
3rd pick: #1 (Tizarocket) (6-1) - The field's most experienced maiden, she has a bit of talent, draws the rail, and will be cutting back in distance. Working very fast and is a threat at a square price.
4th pick: #7 (Aqua Regia) (15-1) - She had no chance after a very "troubled" start when debuting on Nov. 20. Trainer Tom Albertrani adds lasix and filly has worked fast twice heading into this. Longshot possibilities.
