Top pick: #5 (WINNING IMAGE) (7-5) - Hard-hitting mare hasn't raced since Dec. 15 when she was a gate-to-wire winner at Laurel in the $100K "Willa on the Move" stakes. The speed of this contest, 6-year-old is working sharply for her return and she's 3-for-4 on this surface including a win in the 2012 edition of this race.
2nd pick: #4 (Irish Exchange) (6-1) - Price play has gone (5-2-1-2) since coming back from a seven week break last fall and switching to the barn of "Lupe" Preciado. Stalker fits on style and believe she has the best chance at a bit of an upset.
3rd pick: #1 (Los Ojitos) (7-2) - The field's most lightly-raced runner (9-3-1-3), she's stakes placed, still has room for upside, has the rail, and is working fast at Belmont for her first since a win at Aqueduct on Jan. 17.
