Top pick: #2 (PLURACITY) - Hard-hitting veteran spent the early part of his successful career going longer, but has become an effective sprinter the past two years. Enters this seeking his 3rd in a row and those two wins were impressive. The choice to take another, he's one of two entered by trainer "Lupe" Preciado and the pair race uncoupled.
2nd pick: #4 (Hadrian's Image) - The 2nd of the Preciado pair, he's won two of three since being claimed on Dec 19th. Stalker fits with these and should get a fast race to rally into. Stretch threat.
3rd pick: #5 (Bavaria) - Moves way un in class after winning here at this distance on Feb 21st racing for $7000. Overall effort was his best since last May, and he can factor if he repeats the "figure" earned.
