Final Refrain is a good horse to include in the exotics in the Bewitch. Swingit could upset this field; I'm not so sure about the 1 1/2, though. This is shaping up to be a good, competitive race.

I Like both those horses as well, will also include Flawless Treasure in my bets.

Don't overlook Communique. She was a fairly close fourth in the American Oaks at 10f last year and is now third off the layoff, after a win in an off-the-turfer last out. Could like the stretch-out.

Good minds think alike. My pick for ROTD and Kee's contest.

Nice pick Pedigree Ann. I had her with my 2; yours was the only one to show up.
