Premium Pick

Top pick: #5 (A DAY AWAY) - Lightly-raced colt from the first crop of "Any Given Saturday" cost $260,000 and runs today off a drop down to $20K. He continues to race evenly and last out at Hollywood on June 7th he finished third of six, racing for twice this price at this trip.

2nd pick: #1 (I Feel Free) - One of a pair entered by trainer Doug O'Neill and the pair race uncoupled. Gelding has picked-up eight minor awards in a dozen starts with most coming against tougher. Has the rail and is a win candidate from off the pace.

3rd pick: #9 (Notahobby) - Stretch-out sprinter drops as he runs second off a Pete Miller claim. Trainer has already saddled four winners at this meet, including a pair yesterday and this Cal-bred is a win candidate this afternoon.

4th pick: #10 (Midnight Con) - The second of the O'Neill pair, he drops to a new low in price and will go from grass to "poly" for this attempt. Has previous experience on this surface and raced evenly last summer in both facing much tougher.
