Top pick: #2 (JUST IMAGINE) - Grey colt by "Unbridled's Song" showed both talent & speed last year in a series of 4 starts and is working very fast for his first race since October 1st when he finished 2nd on this surface going two-turns. Bet to favoritism in his three starts at this level he's the horse to beat today.
2nd pick: #4 (Saddleranch) - Son of the late "Vindication' is working fast locally for the Baffert barn and several of the drills are sharp moves from the gate. Home-bred may be a good one.
3rd pick: #5 (Celtic Charmer) - Gelding by the imported "Castledare" has been competitive in all his starts (4-0-3-1) and has enough early speed to stay close and make a lte run. This effort will be his first on this surface.
