Top pick: #2 (SILK INDIAN) (3-1) - Nice effort here on Jan. 13 saw him press a quick pace after bobbling at the start and hold gamely to finish second. Race was his first on real dirt and he's since come back with a sharp work on Jan. 29.
2nd pick: #3 (Remind Mee) (5-1) - Colt has been in facing tougher in his first pair and ran well in each. Trainer Bob Diodoro drops him into a claimer and has him making back-to-back starts, both for the first time. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #8 (I'll Run the Show) (8-1) - He missed by a nose when debuting on the Hollywood "poly" for a $30K tag Nov. 22, then tired facing special weights on this surface Jan. 5. Working fast since, he's in the barn of the Charlie Treece, who wins a lot of races every year at Los Alamitos.
4th pick: #10 (Cut to the Front) (8-1) - He drops down for this attempt and will get the addition of blinkers. He's taken some money in both outings and draws outside of the speed. Can factor at a nice price.
