3rd pick: #9 (Perfect State) (7-2) - Much improved in her last two, filly finished a close up third in both, each at this level and distance. She holds a big recency edge on 'Sophia's Choice' and early speed is her game.
4th pick: #6 (Very Humorous) (5-2) - Home bred raced evenly when debuting here against tougher March 17. Former jockey Dave Kassen brings her back quickly and drops her way down in class. Along with that change, he replaces apprentice Figueroa with veteran Jaramillo.
