Top pick: #5 (MILLIE N MARIE) - Golden Gate shipper has a fine overall record (15-5-4-2) and her record on real dirt is outstanding (10-5-3-0). In a winning barn (Jeff Metz) filly finished second here in her only previous local appearance.
2nd pick: #4 (Hey I'm Sobaa) - Claimed on July 19th at Del Mar for $7000, she's been on the sidelines since and will drop a bit off the purchase price. She ran well last winter on real dirt at Santa Anita and expect her to do so again today.
3rd pick: #2 (Son de America) - She has some speed and will take a huge drop in price and go turf to dirt. Lightly-raced filly broke her maiden on real dirt at Santa Anita in April of 2011 and is an obvious contender at this reduced level.
