Top pick: #7 (J' NOODLE) - Filly races 2nd back off a 7 week break, drops into a claimer for the first time, and trainer Jeff Mullins sitches her from turf back to the main-track. Working fast and she's the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #2 (Sambora) - Has some speed and she improved in her latest when trainer Bob Troeger sent her two-turns for the first time. Price play has a shot if she steps it up a bit more.
3rd pick: #1 (Go Tena Go) - Has the rail and good early speed. Well-bred filly has been heavily bet in both her starts and probably has more ability than she's shown.
4th pick: #3 (Dear Maria) - Races first off a 2 1/2 month break and she's working fast, presumably with the blinkers on that she'll wear in "live" action for the first time.
