Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (BUDGET CUT) (5-2) - Well bred filly broke her maiden here going 6.5 furlongs Dec. 22. It was her local debut and first following a private trainer change to Tom Amoss. Daughter of 'Super Saver' gets a slight edge, but make sure you reverse your exactas with her.
2nd pick: #9 (Lucky Loretta) (2-1) - Excellent debut score came here Dec. 23 going five furlongs. Pa. bred put in a strong late charge to win 'going away.' Bet down to 5-2 that evening, she's a win threat right back.
3rd pick: #7 (Pure Joy) (6-1) - Improving filly got her maiden win here going 6.5 furlongs Dec. 16. By far a career best, it's noted she was bet heavily in her last pair. Good barn (Scott Gelner) has her headed in the right direction.
4th pick: #8 (Brookie) (8-1) - Competitive in al three starts, filly missed by a 1/2 length at this level Dec. 30. That was her first facing winners following an easy maiden win here Nov 16. Must be left in the mix.
5th pick: #4 (Crown and Seven) (8-1) - Longshot finished third last out and was 2.5 lengths behind 'Brookie.' Improving and she may get a share at a big price.
