Top pick: #3 (R NEXT GEM) - Gulfstream shipper had no chance there April 9th when she had all sorts of problems at the start and ran evenly once in stride. Filly by grass champ "English Channel" races for a high-percentage barn (Kirk Ziadie) and he's won with 5-of-9 starters at this meet. 3-year-old drops to a new low in price and is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #6 (Joe's Doubledandi) - Stalker comes into this off a pair of "in the money" finishes and last out ran third facing slightly tougher. This field is rather poor once you get past "Gem" and this filly by "Double Honor" can factor in this spot.
