Top pick: #7 (I'LL WRAP IT UP) (7-2) - Grey gelding has been freshened up since Jan 29 when he ran fourth here on the grass facing slightly weaker. He's winless on the turf, but has several solid efforts and finished second last August on the Del Mar infield in a G3 stakes. Working fast at Los Alamitos and he can take this with his best.
2nd pick: #1 (Lucky Views) (9-2) - Stalker moves to the turf after finishing second in two straight here on the dirt. He's run well on the grass in the past, has the rail, and is in career best form. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #5 (Crucero) (4-1) - No-speed type has made up ground in two straight on the grass after breaking his maiden on the local dirt Feb 15. A fast and/or contested pace would help his chances out.
4th pick: #4 (Sir Macho) (7-2) - On the sidelines since Jan 19, he raced evenly following a slow starts going 6.5-furlongs on the local grass. Strong finisher fits with his best and is another who would love to see some pace in front of him to close into.
