Top pick: #1 (SHANTY IRISH) (10-1) - Long shot stretches out in distance and draws the rail. Well backed in his last pair at this level going 6.5-furlongs, he's finished within range in each while not having the best of trips. Has a solid shot at a big price.
2nd pick: #7 (Sir Cal) (4-1) - Home bred was involved every step here while finishing second May 23 racing at this level and distance. He's worked nicely since, retains Bejarano, and is an obvious win candidate.
3rd pick: #8 (Ace Deuce) (6-1) - Gelding was taken off the pace last out and never showed much when asked. He had finished second in four straight prior to that and was beaten narrowly in each. He has a new rider today and should be involved from start-to-finish.
4th pick: #9 (Los Gatos) (6-1) - Lightly-raced, he's improved noticeably since switching to the turf. Close up in his last pair, he must be left in the mix.
5th pick: #2 (Over Par) (4-1) - He ran fourth at this level May 1 and that start was sandwiched between a pair of stakes tries. Fits with his best.
