Premium Pick

Top pick: #3 (RIVERS OF EXCESS) - Daughter of "In Excess" finished fourth after chasing the pace in her debut at Hastings Park on August 14. Filly tackled colts that day and was sent in for almost a three-month freshening. She chased a very fast pace locally on Nov. 6 facing $20,000 foes and stayed on until mid-stretch. Drops and she's making back-to-back starts for the first time. The top selection.

2nd pick: #6 (Fifty K) - California invader finished a strong second here on Halloween after pending the first part of her career in So. California. She has a trio of drills since that effort and gets a big rider up-grade to Scott Stevens. Late threat.

3rd pick: #7 (Auvergne) - She raced close-up while between horses on Nov. 23 racing for $20K and is brough back quickly for this and drops down a level. Can factor today.
