Top pick: #4 (ZIPPIN ALONG) - Mare by "City Zip" was away for a year beginning in Dec. of 2010 and is just now returnung to her best form. 5-year-old has finished second in two of her last three starts and last out did so at this price and distance. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #6 (Media Lady) - She'll be trying winners for the first time after getting her maiden win here a month ago. Lightly raced, her connections have her conservatively spotted in her first facing winners.
3rd pick: #2 (Codera) - Filly was the favorite the first five times she ran, so somebody liked her a lot. Speedy sort was in an excellent mid-Atlantic barn (Gary Capuano) and will be racing for the first time since late April. Her ability to break quickly is a big plus.
