Top pick: #8 (BICKERSONS ) - Speedy filly tired last out when going a mile at Gulfstream and she'll probably stick to sprint distances for the time being. She draws an outside slot and the track will be muddy or sloppy today at Aqueduct. She can win this early by being sent hard.
2nd pick: #1 (Romantic Hideaway) - Has the rail advantage and won over a track with moisture in it at Philadelphia Park last fall. Has a nice local work since shipping from Florida and is a win threat at a square price.
3rd pick: #4 (Liam's Dream) - Lightly raced and talented she finished an even third to the top pick in her seasonal bow at Gulfstream. In a top barn (Tony Dutrow) and she was working nicely in Florida before shipping north.
