Top pick: #2 (SWEET SARANNA) - Filly took some money at the windows in her debut 15 days ago facing special weight competition, but ran evenly that day against the better foes. Trainer Tom Bush brings her back quickly, drops her into a claimer, and adds blinkers this afternoon. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #4 (Tillie's Girl) - Bet down to favoritism in her debut she was a non-factor while racing wide and was claimed that afternoon by Rudy Rodriguez for $16K. Barn brings her back five weeks later with a raise in price, and Rodriguez wins at 37% rate first off a claim.
3rd pick: #5 (Karakorumknowitall) - She's had trouble of some sort in all four of her starts but has been competitive in each. Draws a good post this afternoon, has some early speed, and should factor from start to finish.
