Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (BLUEBERRY PRINCESS) (2-1) - This filly drops in class following an even 4th place finish here going 5.5 furlongs Dec. 7. It was her first back after a two-month freshening, and she runs today on a nine-day turnaround. I like her chances.
2nd pick: #6 (Sharp Image) (12-1) - This longshot has been training fast here for her first since Oct. 26. Competitive in her first four, she's regressed badly in her last pair. She's a threat with her best at a very big price.
3rd pick: #3 (Hot On the Trail) (4-1) - Home-bred raced evenly when debuting facing tougher Nov. 23 at Del Mar. Back in 23 days, she drops down, and is dangerous with the normal second out improvement.
4th pick: #2 (Awepolonia) (6-1) - She finished a distant 3rd here at this tag Dec. 7 in her first back following a two-month break. She could grab a share, but needs to do better for anything more than a minor award.
