Top pick: #4 (ROCKZIG) (3-1) - Lightly raced and well-bred, he comes off the best last race of these when he set a pressured pace and held gamely to finish 2nd, beaten just under a length racing here at this tag & trip on March 12. Gelding by "Rockport Harbor" can win this with a repeat of that effort.
2nd pick: #2 (Clara's Irish Boy) (5-1) - He was part of a heavily bet entry when debuting on March 26th and tired badly after settinh a quick & presured pace. Trainer Dan McFarland brings him back on short notice and drops him to the local bottom.
3rd pick: #6 (Objectofthetarmac) (7-2) - Debuting Cal-bred has some fine works showing and comes from a winning barn (Jeff Metz). 4yo need not be anything special to factor against these.
4th pick: #3 (Iron Cowboy) (8-1) - 6yo has yet to crack the exacta in a dozen starts, but continues to finish withing range and last out was only two back of "Rockzig". Can factor at a square price.
