Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #10 (VELLEITY) (7-2) - She finished fourth here at this level and distance Dec. 13. It was her first in blinkers and 4-year-old gets a slight edge in a competitive finale to the card.
2nd pick: #5 (Miss Rippinlips) (5-1) - Consistent sort rallied to finish second here at this $10K tag and 6.5 furlong distance Dec 20. It came in her second back off almost a three month break and 4-year-old is a stretch threat.
3rd pick: #7 (Joy's Rally Finale) (12-1) - Longshot is lightly raced and enters off a fourth place finish here Dec. 20. She tired after pressing the pace while checking in 2.5 lengths in back of 'Miss Rippinlips'. She's worked very fast since and has a shot at a big price.
4th pick: #4 (This Ain't Dallas) (4-1) - Veteran maiden tends to race evenly while picking up minor awards in six straight. Fits with her best and she draws inside of the major players.
