Top pick: #2 (FUR LINED) - Lightly raced in 2011, she went (4-1-2-1) and when last in action, mare was an easy winner at Delaware Park racing for $20K in early October. She's been competitive in the past at this entry-level allowance condition and runs today off a trainer change to Jonathan Sheppard.
2nd pick: #3 (Blues Legend) - Mare was a maiden winner here on Dec. 22 in her first on this course and first race in two months. Daughter of "Mr. Greeley" has worked twice since and is a threat again this afternoon.
3rd pick: #7 (Family Heirloom) - She was a very easy and impressive maiden winner when going 7 furlongs on the dirt here Dec. 29. Trainer Leigh Delacour switches her to the grass, stretches her out in distance, and moves her way up in her first attempt against fellow winners.
