Top pick: #9 (SHEIK'S SERENADE) - Well-bred filly has run strong in her first pair of efforts and will try this "flat" mile distance for the first time. Daughter of "Unbridled's Song" has good tactical speed and finishes with some kick. The choice to break her maiden.
2nd pick: #6 (Treasure Trail) - Well-bred filly closed a lot of ground in her debut to finish fourth. Trainer (Shug McGaughey's) runners usually improve after one or more starts. Looks well intentioned.
3rd pick: #3 (Cades Bay) - Good debut run at Belmont on October 26, travelling six furlongs. She stayed close to the pace and tired just a tad late. Should be involved from start-to-finish.
