Top pick: #8 (R CLEVER CAT) - Home-bred started her career on the West Coast with the John Shirreff's barn and showed good early speed in both starts facing special weights. Filly by Forest Wildcat runs off a 6 1/2 month break, for a new trainer (Chris Englehart 39% with new arrivals), and will drop way down in class and race on the turf for the first time. Looks very tough in this spot.
2nd pick: #4 (Copious Notes) - Has early speed and will cut-back in distance after tiring at this level going a mile last out. Filly must be left in the mix.
3rd pick: #1 (Galaxy Jet) - Not often you see Dominguez on a runner of this type but this long-time maiden ran a career best last out when he finished 3rd at this price & distance May 26. Has the inside and the rider change is significant.
4th pick: #11 (Tillie's Girl) - Price play has some speed, is well-bred, in the barn of Rudy Rodriguez, draws a good post, and runs on the turf for the first time. Crafty trainer has her spotted where she can do some damage at a big price.
