Top pick: #6 (SO BRILLIANT) - Aptly named colt had a "brilliant" debut when he was an impressive winner at santa Anita on Oct. 22. Reported to be something special prior to his first outing, $300K grey son of "Medaglia d'Oro" was bet down to odds of 3-5 and did not disappoint his backers. Working fast since, if he transfers his dirt form to this surface, the rest are in trouble.
2nd pick: #7 (Galex) - He's run well in three of his four starts and in his lone poor outing he had some traffic trouble. Last out, he rallied to finish second to the ultra impressive "Secret Circle" in a stakes at Santa Anita. Race was his first in two months and colt by "Flatter" is working fsat for this. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #8 (Muchos Besos) - Price play was claimed out of his debut at Del Mar by trainer Mike Puype for $50K and broke his maiden 52 days later at Santa Anita racing for $75,000. Son of "Macho Uno" is training fast, draws a nice outside post, and stalker should get a fast pace to rally into.
