Top pick: #1 (INCLUDE THE CAT) (5-2) - Consistent mare has the rail and comes off a "neck" loss here at this level & distance on Feb. 23rd. It was her second off a 7 1/2 month layoff, and a repeat of the "figure" earned takes this.
2nd pick: #3 (Smart N Dreamy) (7-2) - Grey filly runs first off a Hollendorfer claim (38%), and he moves her up in class and switches her from turf to dirt.
3rd pick: #6 (Clear Pearl) (4-1) - Lightly raced and well-bred, she's racing third off a long break, drops in class, and is racing on real dirt for the first time.
4th pick: #4 (Melanistic) (12-1) - Speedy veteran has a great local record (11-4-1-2), and the distance and level are fine. Mare should be involved most of the way at a big price.
