Top pick: #5 (CAT BRANDO) - He's been competitive in all three starts since coming here from Hollywood Park in early Dec. and has both speed and stalking talent. Gelding held his form last out off a claim and he can win this race with his best.
2nd pick: #6 (Daddy's Vision) - He stalked and rallied late to defeat "Brando" last out by a length and has run well in all 4 starts since coming to Arizona from Oklahoma last fall. In a great barn (Tim Gleason) and I almost put this 4-year-old on top.
3rd pick: #7 (Gustavo) - Another speed/stalker and he pressed a very fast pace before weakening last out at this tag and distance. Can be a factor today at a nice price if he rates just off the lead.
