Top pick: #6 (UPTOWN TWIRL) (5-2) - Filly cost $630,000 this past March at a 2-year-old in training sale in Florida. Working nicely and her latest drill was a sharp half-mile gate breeze here June 14. In a capable first out barn (John Sadler 20%) and Victor Espinoza is aboard.

2nd pick: #8 (Right There) (3-1) - She was bet down to 2-1 favoritism when debuting here May 21. Breaking from the outside post, she rallied while wide to finish second. Filly again draws outside, but the additional 1/6th she travels today is in her favor.

3rd pick: #7 (Fast Escape) (7-2) - Well backed in the same May 21 contest as 'Right There,' she ran closer to the pace than that rival before weakening to check in third, only a 1/2 length back of her.

4th pick: #3 (Sharpest One) (8-1) - The only filly that has started twice, she improved noticeably in her second outing. She has some speed, is working fast, and draws inside of the top three selections.
