Top pick: #6 (TIZ MIDNIGHT) (5-2) - Heavily bet in her debut sprinting at Santa Anita on April 11th, she was off slowly and rallied while extremely wide to finish a distant 3rd. Trainer Bob Baffert (28% 2nd time out), brings her back quickly and stretches her out in distance (29).The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #7 (Sheaproux) (12-1) - Longshot raced evenly last out at this level and distance in her first race in 6 1/2 months. Trainer Mike Mitchell has worked her 5 times since that March 14th comebacker, so she should offer whatever she has in this spot.
3rd pick: #4 (Trojenna) (7-2) - Daughter of "Lawyer Ron" has shown ability in all three grass races and trainer Gary Mandella will race her on a "poly" surface for the first time. Woerking fast locally and Bejarano gets aboard for the first time.
4th pick: #9 (Thisonesforricky) (7-2) - She's finished 2nd in two straight, one each on dirt & turf and will switch over to the all weather in her 2nd back from a 7 week freshening. The faster the pace, the better her chances.
