Californiastorming (#3) - Ships in from Northern California, but is actually taking a drop in class to the claiming ranks. Connections know how to win at Del Mar and this one breaks maiden today.

Freedom Event (#8) - Has been running against Maiden Allowance foes on the turf, but drops in ranks and back to the dirt. Look for him to come closing late.

A Controlled Crash (#4) - Been hot in the claming box, but not on the track as he's been claimed twice, but never won! Has been knocking on the door and may be the most consistant runner in this group.

Jolly Spirit (#2) - Has shown no early foot and falls too far back to get up for the win, but might be closing for a smaller share once again today.

The Plays: Exacta 3-4-8 with 2-3-4-8 ($18).
Note: Cost based on a $2 ticket.
