Premium Pick

Top pick: #5 (MOONE'S MY NAME) (5-2) - English-bred and raced, grey mare makes her North American debut off of some solid looking works for her new trainer (John Sadler). Mare had a fine record in her native country (17-6-2-4) and was (8-2-0-3) at this distance. Last Oct at Newmarket she defeated a field of colts at this trip in a snappy time of 1:36 while earning the best Time Form "fig" of her career.

2nd pick: #2 (In the Stars) (7-5) - Talented Brazilian import comes into this off a career best when she finished 2nd here to the top mare "Mizdirection" who defeated males here last Nov in the "Breeder's Cup Turf Sprint"(G1). Working fine and she has enough early speed to stay involved evdery step. Win candidate.

3rd pick: #4 (I Dazzle) (5-2) - Strong finisher may be at a disadvantage today as the pace picture mamight not favor her one run style. However, she fits and is working sharply at Hollywood for her first start in 6 weeks.
