Top pick: #2 (BIGLEY) (3-1) - Lightly raced gelding drops down to the local bottom after finishing a wide third here for an $8K tag on Dec. 10th. It was his first since coming from So. California and first for leading trainer Bob Diodoro. Blinkers go on (30%), and 4yo looks set for a big effort.
2nd pick: #4 (Delta Bravo) (5-2) - He raced evenly following a slow start here at this level on Dec. 9th. He had just missed in his previous start, and a repeat of that effort makes him a win candidate.
3rd pick: #5 (Fit for Duty) (7-2) - Lightly raced he finished a pace-chasing second here at odds of 31-1 on Dec. 10th. By far a career best and it earned him the best last out "figure" on any entered. Very dangerous if it's repeatable.
4th pick: #7 (Red Terrace) (12-1) - Los Alamitos shipper has early speed and is training fast locally for his new trainer (Mike Silva). I like this barn, and it's much better than it's 2014 record.
