Top pick: #4 (LIDO) (3-1) - Colt was a very impressive maiden winner here on the all-weather surface on May 4th. He tracked from close range while racing wide, bid to take over at the 1/4 pole, and drew off to a 4 1/2 length win. Claimed that day by Cody Autry for $30K, he's worked him three times since and switches him to the turf for his first facing winners.

2nd pick: #3 (Baby Blake) (7-2) - He's finish second seven times in eight starts on the grass including both of his local attempts. Consistent colt has been freshened up since being claimed for $25K by Bob Diodoro on April 21st and is an obvious win candidate.

3rd pick: #7 (Noble Exchange) (5-2) - Lightly-raced 5-year-old finished second here at this level on the all weather May 18th and is racing back into shape following a year's layoff. Speed/stalker draws outside of the other pace types and that gives rider Edwin Maldonato some early options.

4th pick: #2 (Langfuhrs Lightning) (5-1) - He's yet to win on the grass (4-0-0-2), but fits on "figures" and was only a 1/2 length back of "Blake" when they met at Santa Anita Feb. 17. Gelding is training sharply for his first since April 18th and is in the fine small barn of Dave Hoffmans.
