Top pick: #4 (BARRACK'S ROAD) - TRaining fast for her seasonal debut and daughter of "Elusive Quality" is in the top barn of Mark Casse. She showed good speed last year and looks all-set today.
2nd pick: #1 (Harpoon Hattie) - Has good early speed and draws the rail. Goes "poly" to turf but one of her best starts came at the Fair Grounds on the grass. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #9 (Lava Lake) - Filly ran well in both starts last year and was only beaten a "nose" when debuting in October here at this distance. Win threat.
4th pick: #6 (Seeking Sheba) - Beautifully-bred filly is in the barn of "Hall of Famer" Bill Mott and is working sharply for her belated debut. Can impact first out.
