Top pick: #8 (TY'S CHOICE) - Lightly-raced filly ships from Evangeline Downs after rallying to finish fourth there racing for a $10K tag on Sept. 5. She has a new trainer tonight (Brent Angelle 21% with new arrivals) and this Louisiana-bred meets a wery weak field.
2nd pick: #6 (R.C.Road) - Improving filly showed fine early speed before tiring late last out racing for $15K. Owner/trainer Debbie Schaber drops her back down and it's good to see Houghton back on the re-ride.
3rd pick: #9 (Gold Lark) - Nice effort last out saw her rush up to set the pace following a troubled break and hang on to finish third. Can factor again, but the top two selections are better win candidates.
