Top pick: #5 (ZERMATT) - Has the best early speed and a sharp recent work. Races for the leading trainer and jockey Todd Pletcher/John Velazquez and she's the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #3 (Devils Humor) - She won her debut back in March at the Fair Grounds and hasn't raced since. Working fast and she's in a top barn (Steve Asmussen). Contends today.
3rd pick: #2 (Beutician) - Likes the course but she's been a disappointment this year. Capable of a late rally against these and she's an exotics factor.
