Top pick: #11 (DOWN WITH WANDA) (3-1) - The probable favorite, filly has shown sharp in early speed in both starts before weakening to finish third. Good small barn (Chris Thornton) drops her to a new low and has her making back-to-back starts for the first time.
2nd pick: #5 (Gone Dandy) (4-1) - Home-bred comes off a career best when she rallied while wide to check in second of 11, beaten almost 7 lengths racing here at this tag and trip Sept. 21. Filly defeated five of today's rivals that day and is an obvious threat.
3rd pick: #7 (Independant Bella) (6-1) - She runs third back off almost a 7 month break and may have "bounced" a bit last out after running second in her return. Grey filly fits and is a win candidate.
4th pick: #3 (Finishrich for Me) (20-1) - Longshot showed nothing here on Sept. 21st in her first start since Nov. of 2012. She finished second in her debut here almost a year ago and probably needed her return effort.
5th pick: #8 (Viva Sandia) (8-1) - She enters off a career topper when finishing third, only a head back of "Dandy" on Sept. 21. Stalker is improving and is a threat from close range.
