Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (TOO MUCH DRAMA) (8-5) - Lightly raced Cal-bred is running off a private trainer switch to the New York-based Chris Englehart (27% with new arrivals). Filly has regressed since coming East from California in the late summer. She did check in a distant 2nd at this level and distance Nov. 14th and faces a weak looking field.
2nd pick: #5 (Elita) (9-2) - Filly ran deceptively well last out when finishing 5th at this level and distance Nov. 26th. She had a wide trip and made a strong bid before tiring late. 3yo is poised for a big race this afternoon.
3rd pick: #1 (Timna) (6-1) - The main speed, she breaks from the rail. Longshot is stretching out around two turns for the first time, and well bred filly is dangerous if left alone on the lead in the first half-mile.
