Top pick: #5 (COUNTING DAYS) (5-2) - He exits the same March 29th stakes as three others and finished 3rd, beaten just two lengths. Gelding has more early speed than the probable heavy favorite (#3 Procurement) and can take this with first run on that rival.
2nd pick: #3 (Procurement) (6-5) - The probable favorite, he missed by a 1/2 length in the "Pasadena Stakes" on March 29th and defeated a trio of today's rivals in the process. Strong finisher is an obvious win candidate, though at a short price.
3rd pick: #1 (Miceli) (9-2) - Price play wasn't beaten all that much in the "Pasadena and he had some late traffic issues. He has good early speed, draws the rail, and think he's a win threat.
