Top pick: #5 (THERMODYNAMICS) (5-2) - She's been well backed at the windows in all three starts on the dirt and has been competitive in each. Trainer Dan Hendricks moves her to the grass and stretches her out in distance. Working above average, she meets a weak field and is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #1 (Charming Starlet) (7-5) - The probable favorite, filly has been competitive in five straight start and lost by a "nose" here at this level going 6.5-furlongs Feb. 15. She's worked well since, stretches back out, and is a strong win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (Lirica Heat) (8-1) - Longshot has raced evenly in her last pair going 6.5-furlongs here. They came of a almost a half-year's absence and she can factor at a big price at this mile trip.
4th pick: #6 (Wandering Heart) (5-1) - Mare is now a 6-year-old and is making her first start. At that advanced age, it's a tough road for her, but her works are encouraging.
