If it stays on grass I have it narrowed to 3 G's Heavenly Union who has prior experience on the downhil course and cuts back this time to 6 1/2.
7. L.A Devine who improved a lot in career start two and gets Bejarano today.
12. Dextera who raced well in sprints when she was running in Germany. Her US debut was good and she might like cutting back to sprinting. 13. Indian Pride is by a top win early sire and is trained by a successful win early trainer. She's been working at a steady clip since November and looks like she is fit and ready to run a good race.
If it stays on grass, I agree with the 3 and 7, but am starting to like the 10 more and more. Breeding is good for the turf, she's knocked head with some really talented fillies and Rosario takes over. It's O'Neil again, too...it reminds me a little of a the move he made with Mark S the Cooler last month.
He ran poorly in some Grade 1s, and when he moved him from the synthetic to turf last month (with Rosario aboard, I believe) he loved it.
