Premium Pick

Top pick: #4 (POWER CRAZED) (8-5) - Expensive ($275K) yearling by "Empire Maker" rallied strongly to be beaten just over a length when debuting at this level sprinting on the Del Mar "poly" July 19th. Freshened up since, colt is working very fast locally and is stretching out to a distance he was bred to love.

2nd pick: #2 (El Vaguro) (6-1) - No-speed types moves up in class and switches from "poly" to dirt this afternoon. Gelding rallied to finish second at this trip when facing $40K claimers last out and had a bullet 5-furlong breeze at Santa Anita Sept. 5.

3rd pick: #5 (Deputy Striker) (9-2) - Speedy and well bred, 5-year-old hasn't seen action since early July of 2013 when he tired after setting a quick pace at Hollywood Park. Training fast for his return and he catches a field without much other visible pace. Dangerous if ready.

4th pick: #1 (Candy's Shoes) (5-2) - The field's most experienced maiden (6-0-0-2), he has previous dirt experience and draws the ground saving rail. The faster the pace, the better this stretch runners chances.
