Top pick: #1 (KING OF CALIFORNIA) - He cost $225,000 and has only made two starts 15 months apart, finishing 2nd in each. He hasn't raced since March 13th at Santa Anita but is working fast at San Luis Rey Downs for this. Can win this if ready.
2nd pick: #3 (Blazing) - Runs 3rd back off a 2 1/2 month break and he'll shorten-up in distance for this. Has a pair of fine recent drills and he's a strtec threat to win it all.
3rd pick: #6 (The Unusual One) - Speed/stalker draws a nice post in this small field and he has a flexible style, Nice to see Rosario give it another go and this colt must be left in the mix.
