Top pick: #8 (BREAKING THE CITY) (2-1) - She makes his first start off a private sale to owner/trainer Marc Zulueta. Filly is racing second off a 5 1/2 month layoff and is taking a big drop in class while switching from turf to dirt. Three-year-old meets a weak field and won't find an easier spot here any time soon.
2nd pick: #4 (Leroy's Baby) (3-1) - Dangerous rival, she tired facing tougher here in the mud going two-turns June 2. It was her first since late Dec. and first off a trainer change to Ramon Preciado. Speedy sort drops in class and shortens up in distance (a 35% winning move by Preciado). A strong win candidate.
3rd pick: #7 (Pandancer) (9-2) - Lightly-raced filly rallied to finish a very distant second here at this tag facing fellow Pa. breds June 23. She's back in with 'open' company and faces a pair of dangerous looking drop downs. A small slice is predicted.
