Top pick: #5 (TOUCH THE STAR) (5-1) - Price play finished 4th of 9 when debuting in a grass sprint at Belmont Park last October. Juddmonte home-bred is training nicely for her return and a pair of Hall of Famers, Bill Mott and John Velazquez are teaming up (26%).
2nd pick: #6 (Flaming Flag) (12-1) - Longshot raced wide and was only beaten 2 1/2 lengths when debuting here at this level and distance on Feb. 8. A top Canadian barn (Brian Lynch) has worked her four times since and this filly by "Ghostzapper" can factor at a big price.
3rd pick: #4 (Princess Mariah) (3-1) - Lightly-raced and well-bred, she finished a pace-setting third here on Feb. 8 in her first start since Dec. of 2012. She's been bet in all three races and is a win candidate.
4th pick: #2 (My Cat Lily) (20-1) - Mare took some money here on March 1st and raced wide and evenly while beaten almost 5 lengths. Five-year-old by "Kitten's Joy" may do some damage at a very big price.
5th pick: #1 (Everything Matters) (15-1) - No-speed type ships in from Tampa where she ran a carer best when rallying to finish second on Feb. 23. It was her first since early April and daughter of "Lemon Drop Kid" would love a fast and/or contested pace to develop. Stretch threat.
