Top pick: #6 (PLATINUM MINE) - Trainer Jeff Mullins had a very strong meet and he sends out this grey mare by "Memo" nicely spotted. 5yo finished a distant third last out at this tag in a "switched" contest, but in her previous effort finished a fast closing fourth at this trip on the grass facing tougher. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #7 (Three Cuties) - Filly runs third back off a 100-day break and has raced evenly in her return pair facing better. Trainer Paul Aguirre drops her down and the last time she raced at this price filly finished second at Hollywood Park Dec. 15th. Dangerous opponent.
3rd pick: #1 (Huntington Harbor) - Lightly-raced grey daughter of "Rockport Harbor" finished third at this tag going a mile just 15 days ago in her first back off a five-month layoff. Trainer Bill Spawr brings her back quickly and shortens her up in distance. Contends for the top spot.
