Top pick: #2 (ESTRANGE) (5-2) - The probable favorite, she raced evenly while a bit "head strong" when debuting here going 6 furlongs for a $40K tag on May 23rd. Trainer Chad Brown (28% 2nd time out) drops her way down in price, stretches her out in distance, and this filly by "Tiznow" is the horse to beat.

2nd pick: #9 (Shake Senora) (6-1) - Speedy sort takes a big drop today and will be racing in a career soft spot. Against this crew, she should be involved every step, and at a square price.

3rd pick: #5 (Charming Becky) (8-1) - Filly by "Dixie Union" races first off a Jamie Ness claim (38%) and he moves her to the grass and sends her longer. Speedy sort ran well here last fall facing better in her only previous attempt on the turf.

4th pick: #6 (Brianna Nicole) (7-2) - Well-backed in both starts sprinting on both turf and dirt, filly has finished third in each, but was much improved overall in her latest on the grass. Must be left in the mix.

5th pick: #12 (Ivanova) (12-1) - Not a strong win candidate, but she has a nice outside post and could grab a share at a big price based on some of her previous grass races.
