I like Aquired Cat but can't leave ZS off. Zippy Shannon is 10 of 12 ITM with a 50% win rate (including a stake) and one of the top City Zip progenys. I'll be amazed if Linda Rice lets her get passed the claim box.

Edit - old data - just got the pp's for the 7th - she's had 15 starts, 11 ITM...first time over turf - Schosberg is 0-17 first time turf starts and she's coming off 2 month layoff....me thinks the tag is making more sense...Probably won't use her.
Just an FYI, Zippy Shannon was claimed by Levine, so you weren't the only sharp eye that wouldn't let her get by the claim box.

As an aside, I didn't have a live tote today (they blocked all the outlets at work, grrrr), I was shocked Highly Spoken got away at 35-1. The damsire was a multiple G1 winner on turf (obviously in a NYB MSW very few are regally bred for turf) and he had shown moderate ability on dirt (more than most of the bums in the 4th could say.) I wish I did, because I wouldn't have just played a pick 3 flier with him.
