Top pick: #10 (SPOLETO ) - Daughter of "Vindication" chased a fast pace in her debut facing tougher at Monmouth and tired during the stretch run. Working very fast since that August 22nd debut she drops into a claimer and catches a poor field. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #3 (Weak Dollar Policy) - Drops and shortens up in distance for her first appearance since November 29. Workink well and she's in a good barn (Rick Violette). Contends for the win if ready.
3rd pick: #2 (Marabelle ) - Drops and goes turf to dirt for her second back off a 10 month layoff. Has good speed and it's encouraging to see John Velazquez take the re-ride. Win threat.
