Top pick: #6 (PREMIER CRU) - Lightly raced son of "Afleet Alex" showed a lot of "grit" last out breaking hie maiden at Hollywood despite a tough trip and closing up the inside to do it. Working fast since and trainer Bob Baffert replaces Pedroza with Martin Garcia. Think this colt has some talent.
2nd pick: #4 (Lion's Story) - Stalker is one of two entered by trainer Jerry Hollendorfer and they'll race uncoupled. There are three speed horses to his immediate left in the gate and that should lead to a comfortable trip. Has a shot at the win.
