Top pick: #9 (DELIGHTFUL MAGIC) - She tired last out going a mile in a G3 stakes at Delta Downs and is working fast at Palm Meadows for one of Canada's top trainers (Mark Casse). She finished second earlier in 2011 at Saratoga to the very talented "My Miss Aurelia" and looks all set for this.
2nd pick: #7 (Forever Noble) - She was an easy winner here facing much weaker on Dec. 21 and switched barns via a claim. Filly has a flexible running style and that's a plus at this 7 furlong trip. Price play.
3rd pick: #1 (Backstage Magic) - Improving and last out she went wire-to-wire over a solid field in an allowance-optional claimer. Has the rail, a bullet work since, and she's in the mix.
