Top pick: #8 (RACE TO URGA) - Excellent debut saw her break from a tough outside post(12th of 12) at Gulfstream, settle near the back, make a strong move, and get up to finish 2nd despite traffic troubles. Working fine at Saratoga for her first in three months and she's the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #3 (Winery) - Claimed at Gulfatream by Bruce Brown April 14 for $25K filly raced evenly here at this level and trip May 26th in her first for the new barn. Think this 3yo can factor at a big price.
3rd pick: #5 (Abaco) - Beautifully-bred filly from the Phipp's operation ran 2nd at Keeneland April 28 going a bit farther and it was her first wearing blinkers. She has 5 published works since then and is a contender in this spot.
4th pick: #9 (An Absolute Ten) - Daughter of "Rock Hard Ten" raced evenly in her debut May 6 which came here at this condition & trip. In the Mott barn and she could improve dramatically( like many from Mott)2nd time out.
