Top pick: #7 (J K'S MISCHIEF) (7-2) - Speedy sort stretches back out in distance and trainer Doug O'Neill will be dropping her to a new low in price. Filly chased a fast pace and held to finish third, going 7 furlongs for a $40K tag at Hollywood June 21st and can take this crew from gate-to-wire.
2nd pick: #6 (Hard Buns) (3-1) - The probable favorite, home-bred by "Rock Hard Ten" will be switching from turf to "poly" and will be dropping into a career soft spot. This is her first on a synthetic surface and she's a major threat if 3-year-old likes the new footing.
3rd pick: #2 (Magic Number) (5-1) - Lightly-raced filly is another dropping to a new low and she's also trying a "poly" surface for the first time. She's been racing evenly and can factor on the drop.
4th pick: #3 (Backintheacademy) (4-1) - Daughter of "Put it Back" has finished second in two straight at Hollywood racing at this price-tag and comes off a career best from a "figure" perspective. She has more speed than most and gets some 7lbs off with apprentice Nicolas signed on.
5th pick: #5 (Proud Bok) (12-1) - She's back with her original trainer (John Sadler) after a pair out of town for Steve Miyadi. She has some speed and could grab a share at a big price.
