Premium Pick

Top pick: #5 (L X SUNRISE) (5-2) - The probable favorite, filly has finished second in two straight here at this tag. Both of those came going two-turns, and he runs fresh off a rare claim by Danny Velasquez. It's Arias off and Taylor Baze on, and daughter of "Kodiak Kowboy" is the horse to beat.

2nd pick: #7 (Madame Forbes) (3-1) - She hasn't raced since finishing a close up third late last June when debuting at Hollywood Park going seven-furlongs. Working steadily for her return, and Bejarano is aloft this afternoon.

3rd pick: #3 (Tiz But a Dream) (7-2) - She's raced evenly in a pair of six-furlong sprints here at this tag to begin her career. Latest showed considerable improvement, and she's bred to enjoy this mile trip.

4th pick: #4 (Wildly Excessive) (10-1) - No speed type has "nibbled" in three straight local starts going shorter, and will be attempting a two-turn trip for the first time. May get a minor slice at a big price.
