Top pick: #8 (AGENT SCULLY) (7-2) - She's the only runner that's racing with a previous grass win and it came here in a maiden win just 11 days ago. Daughter of "Johannesburg" has improved in all three starts since her debut in late Sept. at Santa Anita. Speed/stalker is brought back quickly by trainer Bob Diodoro and newly turned 3yo is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #10 (Set'n On Ready) (5-2) - The field's most experienced filly (9-3-2-1) became a stakes winner when she was an easy winner here on Dec. 29 sprinting on the dirt in the $35k "Arizona Juvenile Fillies." She moves to the grass and stretches out in distance.
3rd pick: #5 (Courtroom Kiss) (5-1) - Daughter of "Lawyer Ron" was an easy winner when debuting on Aug. 31 at Hastings Park in a dirt sprint, then tired to finish third three weeks later when she ran against males in an allowance. On the shelf for almost four months, she moves to the grass and tries a longer distance.
5th pick: #9 (Le Facteur Wow) (8-1) - Very wide last out in the stakes won by "Setn on Ready" she improved late and is another trying the grass and a longer distance, both for the first time.
