Top pick: #9 (Gattinara) - Solid veteran has had a light campaign (4-0-1-2) and has been freshened-up for the past seven weeks. She finished second at this level at Belmont in her latest and speed/stalker is spotted nicely and drawn well in the gate for this seven-furlong distance. The top pick.
2nd pick: #7 (She's Prime) - She returns from Finger Lakes where she cleared the first allowance condition while going two-turns on October 26. Race was her best since coming back from a four month layoff earlier this year and she has back races before the break that say she can compete with these.
3rd pick: #2 (Eager Emma) - One-run type finished second here at this level in the slop going six furlongs on October 28. Lightly raced and competitive, $220,000 daughter of "Unbridled's Song" is a stretch threat today.
