Top pick: #2 (GANGNAM GUY) (9-2) - Bet down to favoritism in his debut here on April 26, he was sent hard at the start and tired in the last furlong after being involved in a speed duel. He's working fine since, and trainer Mike Machowsky adds lasix this afternoon.
2nd pick: #4 (Red Outlaw) (5-2) - He's one of five that are making their racing debuts, and he has some impressive local works on his tab for trainer Pete Miller (28% first time out). Win candidate.
3rd pick: #1 (Better Bet) (5-1) - The field's most experienced runner is making his third start, and has raced evenly while finishing fourth in his first pair. Has the rail and a fine half-mile breeze here five days ago.
4th pick: #3 (Tribal Music) (10-1) - Son of the reliable "Tribal Rule" was initially prepared at Golden Gate Field by Ed Moger Jr., and has been training on this surface since late April. The works are steady, and several were done in very quick time.
