Top pick: #9 (SURFSIDE CHIC) (4-1) - Lightly-raced mare has been freshened up since tiring running for a $15K tag Jan. 13. She's dropping to a new low and had a sharp half-mile work here on March 1st. Gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #6 (Forever Golden) (3-1) - Speedy filly set/pressed the pace and held gamely to miss by a "neck" here at this level going 7-furlongs Feb. 14. Winning barn (Ramon Preciado) cuts her back a furlong and she should be involved from start-to-finish.
3rd pick: #8 (Two Times a Nite) (8-1) - Improving filly rallied to win here at this tag on Feb. 9 as she cleared the 2l condition. That was by far a career best and earned her a solid figure that says she's a threat at a square price.
4th pick: #5 (Miss Woodburn) (8-1) - Gulfstream shipper races off almost a two month break and gets a major trainer upgrade to Marc Zulueta (22% with new arrivals). Filly has been off form of late, but a sharp local half-mile breeze since arriving is a plus. Longshot possibilities.
