Top pick: #6 (OLD MAN LAKE) (8-5) - He ships back from Santa Anita where he finished an even third there in an entry-level allowance on the turf for fellow Cal-breds. He'd run well in his previous pair here at this level and is the horse to beat.

2nd pick: #1 (Ella's Kitten) (3-1) - Since shipping here from California and switching to the barn of leading trainer Bob Diodoro, son of "Kitten's Joy" has gone 6-1-4-1 on this course. Speed/stalker has the rail, fits at the level & distance, and will be in this every step. Win candidate.

3rd pick: #2 (Mojumbo) (4-1) - Gelding raced evenly last out and was only 1 1/2 lengths back of "Old Man Lake" at the finish. Strong finisher is in career best shape and is a stretch threat.

4th pick: #3 (Next Up) (8-1) - Longshot is lightly raced, still improving, and enters off an easy maiden winner here at this distance March 10. Working fine since, and this 3yo is a threat at a square price.
