Top pick: #3 (LIONS STORY) - Consistent stalker (9-2-4-2) is two-for-two on this surface and should be racing just off of "Googles" the whole race. Working fast for this and Pat Valenzuela will give him every chance if good enough. The top pick.
2nd pick: #2 (Googles McCoy) - Undefeated and untested this gelding by "In Excess" gets a class test today as he meets his toughest field yet and also will be trying a two-turn distance for the first time. Working "bullets" and he'll be very tough to catch.
3rd pick: #7 (In the Paint) - Blinkers go on for his second back off a layoff and it's the dangerous barn of Mike Mitchell calling the shots. Presence of Marty Garcia is more than a litle interesting as this son of "Tiznow" will be a nice price. Garcia and Mitchell win at a 30% rate when teamed-up.
