Top pick: #7 (SPEIGHT ME) (9-5) - Well-bred colt runs for the first time since late Nov and the high percentage barn of "Lupe" Guerrero has him working very fast for his return. A huge bullet half-mile breeze (best of 57) on Jan 19th signals his readiness.
2nd pick: #8 (Quanah Gold) (3-1) - He's raced well in all three starts since being claimed by Ramon Preciado in earl Nov and stalker draws outside of the speed. Stretch threat.
3rd pick: #3 (Power Shall Tell) (9-2) - He's been competitive in four straight and all have come on this surface at this tag. He has wet track experience and can factor with his best.
4th pick: #4 (Uptown Ball) (5-1) - Gulfstream invader has good early speed and will be dropping in price, switching to the dirt, and shortening up in distance. Major player, but will probably be over-bet.
