Top pick: #9 (TOUGH TONY) - Golden Gate invader has a number of even efforts on his resume, and his best ever came on real dirt last Oct at Fresno. He has the best 'figures' and can make his local debut a winning one.
2nd pick: #6 (Royal Stack) - Another that's been racing evenly at Golden Gate, he races for the same trainer (Angel Silva) as 'Tough Tony.' Win candidate.
3rd pick: #4 (Advisor) - Very lightly raced, he hasn't seen action since late July at Hastings Park. Drops, is working well, and is a threat in this weak field.
4th pick: #3 (Fisher's Cross) - Unraced since Jan. of 2014, he showed talent at that time, and his best 'figures' would win this if ready. However, that's a very long layoff to overcome.
