Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (LADY PRANCEALOT) (2-1) - Irish import has had a fine year 7-3-1-2 and has won a pait of G3's heading into this G1 contest. Latest saw her rally from far back to win the Valley View at Keeneland going 8.5 furlongs Oct 18. She should love this 10 furlong distance and will be very tough in this spot.

2nd pick: #7 (Giza Goddess) (4-1) - Clearly improving $200K daughter of 'Cairo Prince' moves back in with fellow 3yos after tiring following w wide trip from an outside post in the G1 Matriarch Stakes going a mile at Del mar Dec. 1. Very sharp in three straight against her own age group prior to that, she's a win candidate in this spot.

3rd pick: #2 (Apache Princess) (8-1) - Busy filly is another strong finisher who should like today's 10 furlong trip. Much improved lately, state bred has finished behind 'Lady Prancealot' the last two times they've met, but is getting better and may get a share at a big price.

4th pick: #8 (Vibrance) (3-1) - Promising 2yo in 2018 is racing back into shape after being out of action for 7.5 months. Stalker is improving and should be siting in a nice spot just off the pace. It would be no surprise to see her in this at the finish.
