Top pick: #6 (ALEANDER) (3-1) - He's one of two entered by the Baffert barn and believe this one is the more talented one. Colt finished 2nd here at this level on the dirt Feb 17, but raced very wide and evenly in his latest. Barn moves him to the grass and his last pair of works indicate he's ready to fire.

2nd pick: #8 (Pure Loyalty) (7-5) - The probable favorite, he's another trying the grass for the first time and colt has been competitive in 4 of his 5 starts racing on both dirt & "poly". He finished 3rd last out in a swiftly run 7 furlong contest and should be involved every step.

3rd pick: #7 (Lico) (8-1) - Price play moves up in class and stretches out in distance after finishing 5th of 9, beaten 4 lengths in a "down the hill" $75K claimer March 17th. He's worked fast since and runs 3rd back off a 3 month layoff.

4th pick: #1 (Say Ow) (4-1) - Gelding by "Langfuhr" has been competitive in all three grass races and last out was beaten a 1/2 length at this distance. Working fast, has the rail, and must be left in the mix.
