Top pick: #2 (MISER) - 3yo finished 2nd here April 22 in a similar contest for Ontario-breds and that was her first since debuting here in early Dec. Trainer Steve Asmussen has given her a bit over a month to recover and has worked here three times in preparation for this. The top pick.
2nd pick: #9 (Lady Fortuna) - One of several 4yos entered and this filly has some speed and talent. Comes into this off a career best "figure" and she did so from a tough outside post in a large field. She should be in this from gate-to-wire.
3rd pick: #3 (Highlanddixiebelle) - Filly has fine early speed and has run 3rin a pair of starts at this meet. In an excellent barn (Sid Attard) and home-bred daughter of "Old Forester" can factor again tonight.
