Top pick: #7 (CAPTURE THE CALL) - The main speed, he ships back from Golden Gate Fields where he tired badly after setting the pace. Race was his first off a 2 1/2 month rest and he's worked well here since heading south. He's won here in the past and catches a field where he should clear off without any problem.
2nd pick: #4 (Way Too Much) - 11-time winner rallied to win here racing for $8K on Dec. 29. Claimed that afternoon by trainer Jeff Metz, this stalker fits well with this field, has a near bullet 5-furlong drill on Jan. 22, and Metz wins at a 32% rate first off a claim. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #1 (Dunscombe) - Deep closer ships in from Arizona where he's won two in a row at Turf Paradise. Veteran is the type that can "run all day" and he almost always make a late charge.
