Top pick: #5 (BUGLE) (3-1) - This field is full of promising, well bred fillies who may have bright futures. This $400K daughter of 'War Front' has finished second in both starts. The latest came here on Dec. 11th when she missed by a "nose." Today's 1 1/8th mile distance is a plus and she gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #8 (Sacred Luna) (5-1) - She rallied from far back to finish fourth here when debuting Dec. 21th. She had a tough outside post that day and did well under the circumstances. Stretch threat.
3rd pick: #9 (Giant Crystal) (4-1) - Well bred filly likes to make a stretch run, and last out was only a "nose" behind Bugle. Lightly raced, improving, and a win candidate.
4th pick: #2 (Sierra Olivia) (6-1) - She was competitive in her first turf start and seems like a "long-winded" type. Daughter of Tapit is from the Pletcher barn and can factor at a square price.
5th pick: #6 (Cover Up) (12-1) - Lasix is added to filly by Tapit from the Phipp's operation. The addition of the medication is a 22% winning angle from trainer McGaughey.
