(# 8) CRIMSON COWBOY - Moves outside after a good speed try from the rail in first start in nine months. Well-bet in only start at two, colt ran a fine second in that race last October at Santa Anita. Working very well for the past month, colt looms a strong factor for the win .

(# 9) Speedy Swiss - Good try in first start in nearly eight months. Speed shown from the inside in a large field(10), and colt held well late to finish third. Nice maintenance work since the return, and any move forward gives him at a shot at the top prize.

(# 4) Two Tone Roan - Poor getaway in well-bet debut for the Carla Gaines barn. Working well for second start, and trainer is 6 for 24 with horses running for the second time.

(# 's 1 and 2) Tribal chief and Angus - Should be used in small exactas with the top selection. Tribal Chief is working very fast for first start in nine months. Angus raced well in debut showing speed, but will face outside pressure today.
