Top pick: #6 (DRESS N DRINK) - Fair Grounds shipper was claimed last out by Ramon Preciado for $15K and runs back just a bit over a month later with just a slight drop in price. Daughter of "Silver Train" has a bullet work since coming north and meets a weak field in her local debut. Preciado wins at a 39% rate fresh off a claim and 34% off of layoffs of 30 days or more. Much the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #3 (Zippy Jan) - She's finished third in five of her six starts without ever threatening to win. Consistent with her "figures," she'll stretch out around two turns this afternoon and should be competitive again in this spot.
3rd pick: #4 (Don't Lie to Me) - Filly rallied to finish second last out when trainer Derek Ryan dropped her down to this $12.5K price for the first time. Doesn't have any early speed and she'll need some help up-front for anything more than a minor award.
