Top pick: #4 (REMARKABLE TERESA) (6-1) - Lightly-raced Generazio home bred comes off a career best when she was a gate-to-wire winner Nov. 7, going 7-furlongs. Grey filly by "Concorde's Tune" has been given five weeks to recover and can take another at a square price.
2nd pick: #6 (Gumara) (5-1) - The probable favorite, she's lightly raced, quick from the gate, and is dropping into a claimer for the first time. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #9 (Pekinesa) (9-2) - Consistent speed/stalker has gone 12-2-5-3 racing on the dirt and is 3-1-1-0 at this distance. Filly draws a nice post to track from and must be considered a strong factor.
4th pick: #7 (Sherry Angel) (12-1) - Veteran moves up in class after rallying to finish second when facing weaker on Dec. 7. It was her best overall since June and she's proven in the past capable of stringing good starts together. Stretch threat.
