Top pick: #5 (DAYATTHESPA) - Very talented daughter of "City Zip" is (6-4-1-0) on the grass with her only sub-par effort coming when she was only beaten 5 1/2 lengths in the Breeder's Cup Juvenile Fillies(G2). She's gone 3 for 3 since (all stakes) and broke her maiden on this surface last year whendebuting on Aug 4th. Working fast and she'll be very tough if ready for her first since April 19th.

2nd pick: #1 (Assateague) - Vastly improved of late, she's won two in a row and was an impressive gate to wire winner here of an entry-level allowance July 28th. Race was her first since her maiden win at Belmont in late October and home-bred is working fas for her initial stakes attempt.

3rd pick: #7 (Resonating) - Lightly raced filly has been sharp in all three appearances and trainer Jimmy Jerkens will move her to the grass and stretch her out in distance. Her speed makes her dangerous.
