Top pick: #4 (A ZERO TRAP) - Nice win last out to clear the 1X condition, and race came off a three-month break. He likes this surface (two-for-two), and has trained sharply since that victory. Dominguez climbs aboard.
2nd pick: #9 (Success Fee) - Talented state-bred has been freshened-up for the past two months after finishing second to the promising "Manteca" (who won a stakes next out). Working well for this, and he's a solid win contender.
3rd pick: #5 (Stopbluffing) - He finished close-up in a stakes last out after having to steady in early stretch. Consistent runner, likes this surface (14-3-3-1) and should be near the front today. Player.
