Top pick: #1 (WILD MEDIA) (5-2) - Well-bred and lightly raced, he has the rail, early speed, and has finished second and third in two local starts at this level. Trainer Bruce Headley has him working very fast for his first since Jan. 24 and 4-year-old gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #8 (Caveman Keno) (4-1) - "Keno" is one of two entered by Bob Baffet and 4-year-old son of "Roman Ruler" is working fast at Hollywood Park for his debut. Barn wins at a 23% clip first out and at a 26% rate when riding Marty Garcia.
3rd pick: #3 (Mental Giant) (6-1) - The second of the Baffert pair, he hasn't raced since Oct. 16 of 2011. Training fine, grey gelding was competitive that year on both turf and "poly" and will be running on real dirt for the first time.
4th pick: #2 (Candy's Jewel) (3-1) - He's finished second in three of five on this surface, but all have come going around two-turns. 4-year-old has some speed and comes off a career best from a "figure" standpoint.
