Premium Pick

Top pick: #2 (ELLO GUV) - Races first of a claim by veteran Craig Lewis and this gelding showed good early speed that day before tiring. New barn brings him back a month later below the purchase price and with a pair of fine works since the "halter." The horse to beat.

2nd pick: #10 (I Feel Free) - He rallied to finish third here at this tag on Sept. 30 and did so despite a bit of a slow start. Working nicely for this attempt, he draws a desired outside post at this 6.5 furlong distance and is a win candidate.

3rd pick: #5 (Captain Magic) - Gelding raced evenly in his debut here on Oct. 10 and trainer Josh Litt will drop him from a $40K claimer facing fellow Cal-breds into a $30,000 "open" contest. Blinkers go on and he'll run better today.
