Top pick: #8 (UTOPIAN WIFE) (4-1) - Filly is racing third back off almost a 100-day layoff and will be stretching out in distance and dropping to a new low. Wide in her return effort, last out she had a troubled break, and think she can beat this group with an alert getaway.
2nd pick: #5 (Lil Tiffy) (2-1) - The probable favorite, she's finished second in three of four starts since coming off almost a seven month layoff on Dec. 1. Speed/stalker ran evenly after a troubled start just one week ago and is an obvious win candidate.
3rd pick: #1 (Cake N Cookies) (5-2) - Speedy filly has tired in three straight sprints while being forced to set pressured paces and should get an easy lead this afternoon from her inside post going two-turns.
4th pick: #2 (Notional Girl) (12-1) - Longshot runs off an eight week break and will be taking a big drop in price. Against this rather weak field she can factor at a big price.
