Top pick: #5 (EVERY LITTLE THING) - She takes a big plunge this afternoon as the Gary Contessa barn hangs out the "For Sale" sign. She's been competitive in her last at this mile-trip facing much tougher and drops into a claimer today. Much the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #2 (Dear Marylou) - Not a surprise that she's improved since coming under the care of Rudy Rodriquez as he's had a great meet (43-15-8-6). Daughter of "Birdstone" is a competitive type (11-1-6-0) but skips a condition for this attempt as she's still eligible for a 2l race. Contender.
