Top pick: #7 (GADSDEN PURCHASE) - Gelding has been sharp in all his starts (5-3-1-1) and was an easy winner here facing similar on Nov. 10. Speed/stalker ran a career best that afternoon and trainer Doug Oliver brings him back quickly and had him work a near bullet half-mile four days ago.
2nd pick: #4 (Set'n On Ready.) - One of two fillies taking on males and she beat the boys here going 5 furlongs here Oct. 19. Her only sub-par performances cames in stakes in California and this daughter of "More Than Ready" is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #3 (Mo's Teresa) - Filly was sold privately to trainer Angel Silva following a maiden win at Fairplex on Sept. 14 and was an easy come-from-behind winner here on Nov. 4 in her first for the new barn. Trainer scratched his other horse "Go Papi Go" out of this race and this Cal.-bred looks well meant.
