Premium Pick

Top pick: #7 (SPLENDID FORTUNE) - Home-bred filly by "Giant's Causeway" misswd by a 1/2 length when debuting here on March 10th. She had a tough rail post that day and moves out in the gate for trainer Bob Baffert (24% 2nd time out). Only one of three in this field who have started, and her race was by far the best.

2nd pick: #3 (Perpetua) - She waited, bid while wide, and tired to finish 7 lengths back of "Fortune" when debuting in the same March 10th contest. Filly by "Touch Gold" has since come back with a pair of fast works and she'll be a nice price again today.

3rd pick: #5 (Propero) - Working fast at Hollywood Park for her debut and she's in the always dangerous barn of Mike Mitchell (23% first time out). A near bullet 3-furlong gate breeze on March 9th suggests that speed is present.
