Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (MITCHELL ROAD) (5-2) - One of two entered by trainer Bill Mott and the pair race uncoupled. Daughter of 'English Channel' missed by a 'neck' here at this level going 7.5 furlongs in her debut Dec. 23. Given some time to recover, she's training steadily and gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #1 (Ragtime Suzy) (12-1) - Long shot had some traffic issues when finishing an even fourth here when debuting in a grass sprint Dec. 24. Daughter of 'Union Rags' has some fine works on view and draws the rail as she stretches out in distance. Dangerous at a big price.
3rd pick: #4 (Inconvient Facts) (7-2) - One of two entered by trainer Chad Brown and the pair race uncoupled. $260,000 daughter of 'More Than Ready' has worked eight times locally since mid-December and Brown (19% first out) has Javier Castellano aboard.
4th pick: #8 (American Frolic) (15-1) - She's finished second in three-of-six grass starts and stalker has an experience edge on all. Daughter of Blame has been competitive in three-of-four at Gulfstream and is capable of impacting at a square price.
