Top pick: #1 (SONG OF BROADWAY) - Filly has been competitive in her last pair facing tougher, and trainer Linda Rice will drop her into a career soft spot today off a 70 day freshening. Daugther of "Tiznow" has good positional speed, draws the rail, and meets a very weak field. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #5 (Crystal Galopoff ) - Races second back off a 100 day layoff and mare raced well last out despite a poor start and wide trip. Can be competitive here with a better journey, but needs an improved ride from apprentice Amaro.
3rd pick: #7 (Above The Call) - Filly finished second at Saratoga at this level and distance Sept. 6 then tired here a month later under similar conditions. Speed/stalker fits the group and has the other speeds to her left in the gate. Can factor from just off the pace.
