Top pick: #5 (STAR'S WOMAN) (6-1) - Price play raced both wide and evenly when debuting on the Del Mar 'poly" at this level Aug 24. Decent first effort and trainer Mike Stidham moves her to the grass for this attempt. Bred for the surface and Bejarano replaces the injured Kent Desormeaux.

2nd pick: #2 (Bennett Jean) (9-2) - Nicely bred filly has been competitive in her first pair and is making back-to-back starts for the first time. Daughter of "Smart Strike" worked four times during Sep and will be making her turf debut.

3rd pick: #11 (Daphne's Day) (15-1) - Speed/stalker is another trying the "lawn" for the first time after a pair of even efforts on the Del Mar "poly". Bred for the turf and she can factor at a big price.

4th pick: #1 (Red Sole Diva) (15-1) - Golden Gate shipper is another coming off a pair of even efforts up north and her "figures" fit with those that have started. Has the rail and most by "Speightstown" handle the grass.

5th pick: #4 (C;Mon Sister) (4-1) - Even paced filly has grass experience and has been working fast locally for her first since Sep 1st. She was in "over her head" last out and should factor in this spot.
