Top pick: #2 (ANNIKA GIRL) - Ships in from Philadelphia Park, drops in class, is approaching her best, and she brings her rider (Angel Arroyo) with her. Stalker should be much closer early given the projected "moderate" pace scenario. Can run them down turning for home.
2nd pick: #3 (Golden Cove) - Probable favorite stretches-out off a sprint race which saw her finish an even 3rd to a "much the best" winner. Trainer (Greg Sacco) is good on the stretch-out and this filly will prove very tough in this spot. Almost put her on top.
