Top pick: #5 (GREELEY'S GRACE) (3-1) - Lightly-raced and in a winning barn (Jeremiah Englehart), filly has the best early speed and will be stretching out in distance for the first time. Home-bred meets a weak field and is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #4 (Feelin Irie) (6-1) - She ships from Woodbine and will be switching back to conventional dirt off a very poor effort there on the "poly" on Nov. 20. Filly had been improving prior to that on the Fort Erie dirt and is a stretch threat today.
3rd pick: #1 (Old City) (8-1) - Stretch out sprinter finished fourth here at this level going 6-furlongs on Nov. 19 and did so despite a very troubled start. She has the rail and I think she'll be competitive at a square price.
4th pick: #7 (Beautiful Mimi) (5-1) - Mare is making her 30th start and has gone 26-0-3-6 on this surface. She enters off a career brest when she finished second on Nov. 20 and is a threat with a repeat of it.
