Top pick: #1 (FOLK DANCER) - Lightly raced, well-bred, in a good barn (Vlad Cerin), and she comes off a very strong try here at this level and distance on Oct. 9. Has the rail, and Pat Valenzuela (who was aboard in her latest win) is back aboard. The top choice.
2nd pick: #6 (She's Not Lion) - She raced evenly here last out in her first at this level and catches a field with a lot of speed to rally into. Capable, and not often you get the Carava/Bejarano combo at a nice price.
3rd pick: #7 (Pink Diamond) - Logical contender has finished second in five straight turf sprints including her latest, which came here at this level and trip Oct. 9. Hard to imagine her not running a big race here, but she does have a bit of seconditis to cure.
