Top pick: #6 (SERGEANT O'ROURKE) (7-2) - Home bred filly is lightly-raced, speedy, and is racing second back from a 10-month layoff. She tired in her return at Del Mar facing tougher and is moving back to the dirt and dropping to a new low. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #10 (Lotta Attitude) (3-1) - Speedy filly is another that dropping in class. She's racing second off almost a 70-day layoff and both her wins have come on conventional dirt.
3rd pick: #7 (She's Flush) (5-1) - Veteran comes off a good year in 2014 as she went 15-4-2-2. Stalker was a winner at this level at Los Alamitos on Dec. 7 and has worked fast since. In the mix.
4th pick: #2 (Swissrella) (10-1) - She has won in over two years but has finished second in two of her last four starts. Speed/stalker is in shape and had a very quick 5-furlong breeze here on Dec. 26.
5th pick: #11 (Cin City Lady) (8-1) - No-speed type is lightly raced but draws a tough outside post at this distance. May get a small share with a late rally if the pace is fats and/or contested.
