Top pick: #2 (GO RICHIE GO) - Thought he received a poor ride last out as he was kept wide the entire race and finished fourth of seven, beaten 5 lengths. Effort was his first in two months and first after switching coasts. The horse to beat and at a nice price.
2nd pick: #3 (Aqua Fever) - Speedy sort stretches out off a win at Hollywood going 6 furlongs in a high-end starter-allowance there July 15. That win was a career best and he'll be in this from start to finish.
3rd pick: #1 (Moment of Weakness) - Irish import raced evenly last out in the Oceanside stakes here July 20 and trainer Jim Lloyd will drop him into a claimer for the first time this afternoon. Win candidate.
