Top pick: #6 (BRAD'S RUBY) (2-1) - Stretch out sprinter looms the main speed in this two-turn contest. Filly chased a solid pace and weakened to finish third going 6-furlongs on Feb. 7th. It was her first in New York and first for trainer Jeremiah Englehart. She's worked twice since her last race, and it's apprentice Esquivel off and Ortiz on.
2nd pick: #1 (Jc's American dream) (3-1) - Lightly raced and improving, daughter of "Catienus" ran a career best when finishing second here at this level going a mile on Feb. 23rd. Has the rail and she's an obvious win candidate.
3rd pick: #3 (Gingee) (5-1) - Since early Dec., this long-time maiden has gone 6-0-3-1 on this surface and has a speed/stalking style. She ran a career best "figure" here just 10 days ago, and must be left in the mix.
4th pick: #2 (La Mama de Hierro) (6-1) - Filly was no match for "Ruby" two back, then improved a bit in her latest when finishing third, 2 1/2 lengths back of "Dream." She ran a career best that day, and moves from the outside to the two post. Stretch threat.
