Top pick: #3 (STORMING A J) (5-2) - One of two entered by trainer Paul Kauffmann and the pair race uncoupled. Filly has improved noticeably of late and has gone 4-1-2-0 since the beginning of the year. She finished second here at this level and trip March 23rd and has worked fast since.
2nd pick: #5 (She Can Roar) (9-2) - Very consistent going shorter, speed/stalker has gone 5-0-3-2 this year, all at this level in sprints. Veteran has been competitive at this trip in the past snd should be involved from gate-to-wire.
3rd pick: #7 (Pine Ridge) (6-1) - She's racing third back from a long layoff and speedy filly will be stretching out in distance. Well-bred 4-year-old showed some life in her latest and has some back class. Win threat at a square price.
4th pick: #1 (Let's Do This) (12-1) - The second of the Kauffmann pair she has some speed, is racing third off a long vacation, and breaks from the rail. Mare is capable of impacting if she gets an uncontested early advantage.
