Premium Pick

Top pick: #6 (SENOR RAIN) (3-1) - He's racing second back off a 7 month layoff following a Mike Puype claim in early November at Hollywood Park. Vetern tired in his return start at Santa Anita on June 12th and has been working fast locally for this attempt, presumably with the blinkers that he has on today for the first time.

2nd pick: #7 (Timeless Indy) (5-2) - Well bred gelding drops in class, goes turf to dirt, and has his blinkers removed after four races with the hood on. Working fast and both previous wins have come on real dirt. Win candidate.

3rd pick: #1 (Los Bambinos) (7-2) - He's from the same barn (Rich Baltas) as "Indy" and is racing second off a 7-week break. Stalker is dropping in class, switching from turf to dirt, and has gone 5-1-2-2 when racing on conventional dirt in the past.

4th pick: #3 (Dewrag) (4-1) - In career best form at present, strong finisher just missed at this level here going 5.5-furlongs on July 3rd. Believe that the added distance today is a plus, but his lack of early speed isn't. The faster the pace, the better his prospects.
