Top pick: #3 (EAST FROM WEST) - Ships down from Golden Gate for the high percentage barn of Steve Miyadi (25%) and this gelding is (6-2-2-1) this year racing on a variety of surfaces and at various distances. Speed/stalker is (3-1-2-0) on real dirt in "11" and is spotted to win by the successful barn.
2nd pick: #4 (Forest Prince) - Very speedy veteran raced evenly last out facing tougher at Del Mar and was claimed that day by the Los Alamito's based Charlie Treece for $8000. 6-year-old by Mineshaft has a fine slate on real dirt and a pair of bullet works at "Los Al" since the claim. Serious looking challenger.
3rd pick: #9 (Stand Tall) - Drops, shortens-up a bit, and he's one for one on this surface. Has a tough post and the top picks are positioned well inside of him. Faces a tough task, but could get a small slice.
