Top pick: #7 (SHARED ACCOUNT) - Very consistent filly (13-5-4-1) has been freshened-up for the past two months after a narrow loss in the Grade 1 "Diana" at Saratoga. She's a very much improved runner over her 2009 form and daughter of "Pleasantly Perfect" is training nicely for trainer Graham Motion. This has been their intended target since the Diana and she has a flexible style. The top pick in a competitive race.
2nd pick: #5 (Ave) - Longshot just missed two back in the Grade 2 "Dance Smartly" at Woodbine, then had a very difficult trip last out in the Grade 1 "Beverly D" at Arlington. Working well and she had some quality starts in England before coming to the "states". Contender at a nice price.
3rd pick: #3 (Changing Skies) - Another who's improved a great deal since last year. Speed/stalker is beautifully-bred, in career best shape, and is in the barn of "Hall of Fame" trainer Bill Mott. Contender.
