Premium Pick

Top pick: #2 (MRS K J) (3-1) - Lightly raced filly is taking a big drop in class while moving from turf to dirt. She showed some speed last out, and trainer Marty Jones replaces Omar Figueroa with Raf Bejarano. That move indicates they like her chances.

2nd pick: #6 (Coronado Cat) (7-2) - Filly raced evenly following a slow start when debuting here at this distance for a $50K claiming price April 26. Trainer Matt Chew brings her back quickly, drops her way down in class, and worked her May 10.

3rd pick: #8 (L X Sunrise) (5-2) - The probable favorite, veteran maiden has finished second in 10 of 14 starts racing on conventional dirt. Ten of those placings have come here and four of five of those have come at this distance. An obvious win candidate.

4th pick: #9 (Roman Wild) (6-1) - Away for almost a year, lightly raced filly ships down from Golden Gate Fields where she's been training since early April. Daughter of 'Roman Ruler' has been bet in all three appearances and could threaten if ready.
