Top pick: #8 (TIPPANY) (3-1) - Speedy filly hasn't raced since last fall at Keeneland. Heavily bet in both starts last year, daughter of 'Tapit' is working fast for her return. Very much the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #5 (Liberty Bond) (5-2) - Grey filly ships from Arlington where she was competitive in both starts, one each on turf and 'poly'. Four-year-old by 'Ward Front' has a recency edge on 'Tippany' and has the best chance of beating her.
3rd pick: #1a (Solid Friendship) (4-1) - Filly has gone 8-0-3-2 here and stalker draws outside of the speed types. However, this race drew tough for the level and a small slice would appear to be her ceiling.
4th pick: #2 (All Joya) (6-1) - One of two debuting fillies, she has some fine works on view and breaks from the rail. Good small barn (Lance Stokes) has won with 4 of it's last 10 making their first starts. Leading rider Gallardo's presence is noted.
