Premium Pick

Top pick: #7 (CAMELIA ROSE) - French-bred filly kept good company in her native country and finished very close up almost a year ago in a $350K Group 1 stakes at Longchamp. Import has run well in both local starst since coming to North America and this 10 furlong distance looks right. Runs 3rd back of a half-year's absence and looks set for her best.

2nd pick: #5 (Vamoa a Galupidar) - Long winded sort rallied from far back to win the (G2) Santa Ana on this surface going 9 furlongs March 25th. The type that can "run all day", so this 10 furlong trip isn't any problem for her.

3rd pick: #4 (Capital Plan) - Lightly raced speed/stalker just missed in a very fast race here going a mile March 15th and she's run well in both races on this course. Working fine and daughter of "Rock Hard Ten" can be placed just about anywhere.
