Top pick: #3 (BACK IN THE FOLD) (5-1) - Price play finished third here at this level and distance May 5. It was her first ever on this surface and she had some serious traffic issues down the stretch. Canadian bred has a flexible running style and gets a slight edge.

2nd pick: #6 (Starship Lauren) (8-1) - Lightly raced and speedy, nicely bred filly tired badly here after running off to a big early lead while setting fast fractions May 25. It was her first back off a two month break and her first on a 'poly' surface. Trainer Adam Rice brings her back quickly and removes her blinkers for this attempt.

3rd pick: #5 (Skylar Ridge) (4-1) - Think she'll be the favorite in this spot. Arizona bred rallied to finish second here when debuting May 26. She had a wide trip and was between runners most of the way. An obvious factor, but filly needs to break sharper than she did in her first start.

4th pick: #7 (Amelia Bay) (7-2) - Lightly raced, she tired to finish second here at this level and distance May 25. Nice effort came off an 8 1/2 month layoff, and she should move forward off of it. Must be left in the mix.
