Top pick: #5 (RIVERTOWN BELLE) (9-2) - Talented fill has been freshened up since finishing second here at this level in her seasonal bow on April 27th. Race was her first since Oct. 27 and earned her a career best figure. Stalker should get a fast pace to chase and can take this at a square price.
2nd pick: #2 (Indy Anna Anna) (7-2) - The probable favorite, home-bred was an impressive maiden winner here on June 18th and her connections take the next logical step with her. Lightly raced, and a win candidate right back.
3rd pick: #7 (My Birthday Gal) (10-1) - Un-raced since early Oct., she defeated "Rivertown Belle" when getting her maiden win here on Aug. 28. A bullet work at Churchill on June 1st indicates she's ready to run.
4th pick: #1 (Brenda's Gold) - Another who broke her maiden impressively two back, then ran second at this level to "Harbor Cat" who won a stakes here last week. Speed/stalker has the rail and must be left in the mix.
5th pick: #10 (Aldorable Debbie) (15-1) - Longshot raced evenly while wide here early in the meet in a pair of starts and has been freshened up since May 18th. In a capable barn (Ralph Martinez) and a threat at a big price with her best.
