Top pick: #2 (MOZAMBIQUE GOLD) (5-2) - She finished third here facing a bit tougher on Dec. 21. It was her first since debuting at Belmont Oct. 19. Trainer George Weaver drops her into a claimer for the first time and she gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #3 (Suzy'sprideof Paris) (4-1) - Filly has been competitive in all four turf starts. Latest effort saw her finish a close up fourth here at this tag and trip on Jan. 4. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #8 (Fancy Malka) (10-1) - She has more speed than most and finished a close up third here for a $35K tag Jan. 5. Filly moves up to face tougher, but think she'll be involved from start-to-finish at a square price.
4th pick: #6 (Westminster Road) (9-2) - No-speed type rallied from far back to just miss facing weaker Jan. 15. A career best and trainer Marty Wolfson has Castellano replacing Zayas. Stretch threat.
