Top pick: #8 (SCARLET STRIKE) (3-1) - The field's most experienced runner (10-2-3-5) is 2-1-1-0 on the grass and last out won the (G3) "Provedencia" stakes at Santa Anita going 9 furlongs on the infield. Strong finisher can take another from just off the pace.
2nd pick: #1 (Lilbourne Eliza) (3-1) - Speedy Irish-import missed by a nose at Santa Anita on April 18th in her first start in North America and first since late October. Has the inside post and will be involved every step. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #5 (Sweet Red Cat) (8-1) - Strong finisher ran third to "Scarlet" last out at Santa Anita and is now (5-1-2-1) racing on the grass. In great shape and a stretch threat for "all the marbles."
4th pick: #4 (Disko Dasko) (5-1) - French-bred has good tactical speed and has been competitive in both starts since coming to North America. Must be left in the same race exotic bets.
