Top pick: #5 (MUSTACHE CHARLIE ) - He finished second here in a $40K sprint in early November, then raced evanly in his one start at Hollywood. Stretches-out for the first time, has fine positional speed, and is the choice in a competitive finale.
2nd pick: #7 (I Feel Free) - He's been competitive in all but one of his five starst and last out he rallied to run second at Hollywood at this level sprinting on Dec. 1. Stretches-out for the first time and is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #12 (Arathorn) - Longshot finished second here sprinting in his debut, then raced evenly on the Hollywood "poly" last out. Moves back to the dirt, stretches-out in distance, and he'l be a big price.
4th pick: #9 (Cheezy Breezy) - Gelding finished fourth here at this level when debuting in a sprint on Nov. 4 and is working fast for his first start in almost two months and first around two-turns. This is his home track and he looks set for a good effort.
