Premium Pick

Top pick: #7 (HAVA DREAM) (5-2) - She finished third here after setting fast fraction facing tougher Dec. 28 in her first start in three months. In the barn of leading trainer Jamie Ness, he brings her back on a quick turnaround and drops her down in price. The horse to beat.

2nd pick: #3 (Miss Speed Dating) (7-2) - Strong finisher comes here from the tough So. California circuit and will drop to a new low in price. Mare has a new trainer (Lou Linder) and hew had her work a bullet half-mile here on Jan 11th.

3rd pick: #5 (Sundae's a Meese) (3-1) - New York invader rallied to finish second last out and "nipped" "Hava Dream" out of the place spot while doing so. Race was her first outside of the "Big Apple" and first off a private trainer switch. Stretch threat.

5th pick: #8 (Thrice Nice) (6-1) - Very lightly raced filly is both owned and trained by a member of racing's "Hall of Fame' Jonathan Sheppard. Pennsylvania-bred will be racing on the grass for only the second-time and her first was acceptable. Price play.
