Top pick: #2 (QUEENOFCALIFORNIA) - Speedy daughter of "Northern Afleet" set a fast pace in her latest and was beaten on the wire by a 1/2 length. Race was her second off a 5 month layoff and first at this $30K price-tag. "P. Val" stays put and this 3-year-old will be very tough to catch in this spot.
2nd pick: #7 (Katelyn n'Jenna) - Much improved in her second start as she tracked a fast pace, bid turning for home, and continued on with good courage to finish third, beaten 1 1/2 lengths. Dangerous from just off the lead in this spot.
3rd pick: #6 (She's All Yours) - She was bet in her first two starts last summer at Prairie Meadows but did almost no running. Home-bred made up some ground here at this level 16 days ago in her first race in 8 months and is brought back quickly with blinkers added. Nice price play.
