Top pick: #5 (CEE'S FAST) - Virginia-bred filly impressed in a pair of grass races at Colonial Downs last summer and is training well for her first race since August 20th. The small barn of Bill Phipps is having a good meet (8-2-1-2) and this 4-year-old can take this at a generous price,
2nd pick: #9 (Vertical Lift) - Filly by "Roar of the Tiger" is lightly raced, in a good barn, and enters this off a solid maiden win here at this trip six weeks ago. She has enough speed to not let this post hurt her chances and is a threat right back.
3rd pick: #10 (Sweet Argument) - Along with her one win, this mare has eight minor awards racing on the grass in 16 lifetime starts on it. Tends to "hang" a bit at "crunch" time, but is a factor in the same race exotics.
4th pick: #7 (Prima Donna Pirate) - Mare was sharp on this course last winter (3-1-2-0) and has already proven that she can race competitively against winners. Speed/stalker fits and is a threat if ready.
