Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (LOVE YOU BABE) (3-1) - She's taking a big drop in class, shortening up in distance, and racing on the dirt for the first time. Filly has some early speed but has been saddled with a pair of difficult outside posts in her last pair. Gets a slight edge in a competitive contest.
2nd pick: #4 (The Names Paddy) (5) - Filly is a first-time starter by the versatile 'Paddy O'Prado.' Working steadily and some of her a.m. moves are on the quick side. Veteran John Parisella has won with two of his last three debuting runners.
3rd pick: #5 (D'Bunnyphone) (12-1) - She has consistent early speed, but has tired badly in four straight starts during the stretch run. She's dropping down a bit and may hold on much better is able to get the lead in the off going.
4th pick: #8 (Mary Pray for Us) (4-1) - Home bred is lightly-raced and is taking a big drop in class. Her first pair facing tougher weren't all that bad and she worked a bullet three furlongs at Belmont Nov 6.
