Top pick: #3 (EYES OF LOVE) - Home-bred filly by "Put It Back" has finished second in two straight here at this level and distance since coming back from a bit over a two-month freshening Feb. 17. It's getting late in the 92 racing day meet here and the fields aren't as strong as they were earlier on. Speed/stalker can break her maiden in this spot.
2nd pick: #5 (Seattle Melody) - Filly moves back up in class after finishing second March 15th racing for a $25K tag. Effort was her best since coming back from a 4 1/2 month layoff in late Dec and 4yo is a threat down the stretch.
3rd pick: #9 (Malibu Gem) - 5-year-old mare by "Malibu Moon" has been competitive in four straight local outings and missed by a neck Feb. 25 racing for $25K. Working nicely for this attempt and she's a major threat to the top pick.
