Top pick: #2 (PERFECT SET) (3-1) - Steady performer has gone 3-1-2-0 since being claimed by trainer Jerry Hollendorfer for $20K April 17. He missed by a 'nose' here at this level Aug 1 and earned a career best 'figure.' Stalker is the horse to beat.

2nd pick: #1 (Got Even) (9-2) - The main speed, he's working bullets for his first start since April 19. Veteran is very tough to get by at times and has a fine lifetime record on real dirt 24-4-4-5. Has the rail and this is his favorite distance 8-2-3-2. Win candidate.

3rd pick: #7 (Grazen Sky) (7-2) - Cal bred is consistent and enters off a distant third-place finish going 7-furlongs here in a stakes Aug 2. He had no real chance that day facing the vastly improved 'Gimme da Lute' and he had finished second at Santa Anita racing at this level and distance. In the mix.

4th pick: #5 (Old Man Lake) (6-1) - Not a strong win candidate, but veteran is capable of getting a minor award at a square piece.
