Top pick: #5 (BIG TEAM LITTLE ME) (5-2) - Nicely bred filly has gone 3-1-2-0 on this course and has finished second in two straight at this level since breaking her maiden on Feb. 17. She's in career best form, has a recent work, and speed/stalker is the horse to beat.

2nd pick: #1 (Liar Liar Liar) (3-1) - Mare has finished just behind "Big Team Little Me" in two straight and draws the ground saving inside post. Fits, is in good form, and she's from the barn of leading trainer Bob Diodoro.

3rd pick: #4 (Little Bit Cactus) (4-1) - Strong finisher moves back up in class after a near miss here racing for a $10K tag March 19th. Cal.-bred raced evenly in her previous effort and was well back of both "Team" and "Liar." Needs to do a bit better.

4th pick: #6 (Lunch Hour) (7-2) - Lightly-raced Darley home-bred sgips back from Golden Gate Fields where she finished last of five going a mile on the "poly" there. She broke her maiden on this course Dec. 2 and may grab a share with her best.
