Premium Pick

Top pick: #3 (TRIPLE ZIP) - Filly has faced tougher in her first pair of starts following a Chris Richard claim and will drop back down and actually race below the claimed price today. She has the best early speed of these and will be very tough to catch.

2nd pick: #2 (Maxy Levens) - Sophomore runner has finished second in her last two starts, both at this level following a claim by current trainer Don Millonas. Has enough speed to stay close through-out and has a shot turning for home.

3rd pick: #9 (Eve's Apple) - Daughter of "Powerful Goer" has won two of her last five starts at this tag and they've all come on this surface. From a good outfit (Brian Williamson) and she a stretch threat if she can stay close-up early.
