Top pick: #4 (DAHLGREN CHAPEL) - Races today for the first time since winning an entry-level allowance on this surface March 10th. Working nicely for his return and trainer Kiaran McLaughlin is very good off of long layoffs(25%). Takes this if he avoids traffic.
2nd pick: #1 (Wicked Climb) - The main speed returns from a 2 1/2 month break and he draws the rail. In the barn of Rudy Rodriguez and a threat on the front-end.
3rd pick: #8 (Siete Machos) - He's a stretch threat with all the speed that's signed on but he'll need to stay as close as possible early before launching a late rally. Steady California import races for only the 3rd time on real dirt.
