I've been looking at the CD Saturday card too.

For what it's worth. I use Formulator so I can look at various stats.
I usually do the following:

1. Check trainer stats for 2YOs. I stick to the surface they are running on, in this case dirt.

2. I check the sire lists at BloodHorse. Here's the link. You can check out sires that are doing well with their 2YOs.

3. I look at works but it's difficult to know how a 2YO will react for their first race. They could have great works but you just never know. I like the 2YOs with at least one race under their belts.

4. I look at the odds board to see if there is anything telling for first time starters.

5. I look at the distance numbers for each 2YO to see if he/she will favor the distance they are running for that race. (top right in each horses PPs)

Hope this helps. Best of luck.
