Top pick: #2 (DECANTERED) (3-1) - He disappointed here on Feb. 25 when he chased and weakened to finish third at this tag going 6.5-furlongs. Trainer Angel Silva stretches him back out to a mile and this gelding has finished second in three of six attempts at this trip.
2nd pick: #5 (Designs On Leather) (6-1) - Very lightly-raced he lost all chance in his local debut when he had all sorts of issues at the break. $60K 4-year-old by "Malibu Moon" was racing for the first time in five months and may have needed the race anyway. A strong win candidate this afternoon.
3rd pick: #7 (I'm a Bully Too) (8-5) - The morning line favorite, he's dropping in class and going turf to dirt. He's never raced this low before and has the best overall 'figures' of those entered. Win threat, but at a short price.
4th pick: #4 (Distorted King) (15-1) - Longshot stretches out in distance and gets the addition of blinkers. He may be in this a very long ways at a big price.
