Top pick: #4 (POCKETBALL) (3-1) - The probable favorite, he's fast from the gate and has finished second in both starts. His latest came facing special weights at Los Alamitos. Barn drops him down in class and he'll be tough to beat in this spot.
2nd pick: #6 (Pure Thunder) (6-1) - Price play is working fast and is racing as a new gelding. Barn drops him in class and he's shown good speed in both appearances. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #10 (Matty's Tribal) (4-1) - Another with early sped that is dropping down. He can factor but will need to avoid an early duel with Pocketball.
4th pick: #3 (Bentley's Gone) (6-1) - He raced evenly in his debut and was 10-lengths back of "Pocketball." He took betting action that day and is dropping down while shedding blinkers.
