Top pick: #4 (DESIRABLE DESIREE) - Much improved since a claim by Juan Guerrero last Oct. she's won two of four for him and recently came back from a two month break with a wide fourth place finish at this level going a mile. Barn brings her back quickly for this, cuts her back in distance, and she's the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #7 (Gabby Girl) - Well-bred and lightly raced she'll be trying this 4l condition for the first time after a shrp win here at this price Feb. 22. In a good barn and a win threat right back.
3rd pick: #9 (Miss Tallahassee) - Mare will be cutting-back in distance today off a series of even efforts at this level going longer. Racing fit, in a good barn, and think she'll contend at a nice price.
