1st Race
Top Picks #8, #4 and #5
#8 Ruiva is a well prepared firster for the Ward barn. Barn is formidable with this type. #4 Uncle With Money has several sharp works and looks good to go. #5 Skara Brae is the 6-5 early favorite.
2nd Race
Top Picks #15, #7 and #2
#15 Gus's Gal was the beaten favorite in her last but did hold on for 2nd over a sloppy going. If she draws in here expect her to be very sharp off her that one. #7 Bugs Malone is making her first try over the dirt. With that change and the slight drop in price, could be what she needs to pick up a check. #2 Safe Space is a firster with a solid work tab.
3rd Race
Top Picks #1, #3 and #8
#1 Ma Rae's Girl is first off the claim and 3rd off the layoff. She has a win over the Keeneland course and works suggest she can find another one here. #3 Mom's Cheesecake won a nice allowance race here last fall and this spot looks to suit her. Look for her to be competitive. #8 Sweet Scorecard likes this distance and has the early foot to lead the way and is capable of staying on for part.
4th Race
Top Picks #5, #3 and #10
#5 Trust Account, a very expensive yearling purchase, broke her maiden last out in her 3rd career start and her first start as a 3 year old. She looks the part and top connections bring her over. #3 Amberglen broke her maiden here last fall at first asking. She is making her first start of her 3 year old campaign here and she adds Lasix this time. Expect a big effort from her. #10 Huck's Agenda is making her first start over the lawn after having been fairly successful over the dirt in 5 career starts.
5th Race
Top Picks #6, #8 and #2
#6 Mr. Miracle is making his 3rd career start for the Brad Cox barn. He has a couple of 3rd place finishes under his belt and expect him to find his way to the winner's circle this time. #8 Royal Crescent just missed in his last race which was his 2nd career start. He has top connections and he should be a big player in this one. #2 Fourth Dimension has been an improving sort and this is 2nd time Lasix for him. Don't leave him out.
6th Race
Top Picks #4, #10 and #9
#4 East Jabip has a real shot of getting an easy lead and taking this group gate to wire. #10 Soloist ran well as a 2 year old breaking her maiden at first asking and being quite competitive in stakes company. Sure she has matured at 3 and could be a big player here. #9 Just a Minute is 2nd time Lasix and like her works.
7th Race
Top Picks #5, #2 and #3
#5 Go to Girl is first off the layoff and first Lasix. She has some impressive running lines coming out of her 2 year old campaign and like her for the win. #2 Market Chill broke her maiden last out impressively and poses a threat here. #3 Majestical adds blinkers this time and comes over as the early 9-5 favorite.
8th Race
Top Picks #3, #8 and #6
#3 Simulate has been facing some tough company in recent form. He comes in here fresh and like his odds. #8 Mountain Bear is another that is fresh off the layoff and past Beyer numbers are impressive for this field. #6 Reagan's Wit is proven at this distance and is finding a bit softer company than he has faced in recent form.
9th Race
Top Picks #12, #9 and #2
#12 Merry Madison is 3rd off the layoff and looks quite capable with this field. #9 Haleakala is making a significant drop in class. She fits here. #2 Onmywaytosavthday has been competitive with this level in past form and should land a share in this spot.
