Premium Pick

Top pick: #1 (MORE TO THE STORY) - Daughter of "More Than Ready" cost $625,000 at auction and has shown good speed in her first pair, one each here on the grass and the other on the Keeneland poly. Freshened-up by trainer Kiaran McLaughlin for the past six weeks she's training fast for her return at the Greentree training center at Saratoga. The top pick.

2nd pick: #7 (Out Post) - Daughter of "Silver Deputy" returns today off a February 22 layoff at Gulfstream Park. Filly showed good speed on the dirt there in a pair of starts and will move to the grass this afternoon for the first time. Barn (Alan Goldberg) is good off the layoff (19%) and a bit better on the distance switch (22%).

3rd pick: #6 (Warm Springs Girl) - She was claimed on May 28 by Del Carrol from George Weaver for $35,000. Filly finished second that day in her first back off a eight-month layoff and raced evenly last out in a maiden special in her first for the new barn. Blinkers go on today and she should rebound in her third off the long rest.
