Top pick: #8 (PASCHAL'S PARADOX) - Very speedy filly just failed to clear this level last out as she was caught right on the wire after opening up a six-length lead turning for home. Looms the early leader once again and this strip has always been kind to her type. The top selection.
2nd pick: #9 (Punchin' Chudy) - Daughter of the famous sire: "Two Punch" has some talent and will be returning from a three-month vacation. Appears best utilized as a stalker and she has a clear leader in our top pick to chase. Has the best chance at running her down.
3rd pick: #6 (Trini Dubai) - She showed some talent last winter racing against "open" company in New York. She's raced well since a switch to trainer Edwin Broome and racing against fellow state-breds. Nice maiden win last out, so she'll be facing winners for the first time.
