Top pick: #3 (HAVRE DE GRACE) - Very talented filly races today on her home track where she's 5-2-2-1. Today's rival "Blind Luck" defeated her in three of four last year, but this daughter of "Saint Liam" handled her easily this past April at Oaklawn Park in the Apple Blossom (G1). She has a tactical edge with her early speed and had local trainers shaking their heads after she worked 5/8ths here five days ago in :57.80. The horse to beat.

2nd pick: #5 (Blind Luck) - Last year's Filly and Mare champ has an incredible overall record (20-11-7-2) and won last year's G1 Alabama at Saratoga the only other time she ran at this 10-furlong trip. Filly must wait and launch a bid and her chances depend on whether "Grace" must run fast early. Looks like this will be a helluva race this afternoon.
