Premium Pick

Top pick: #4 (FOR THE SUMMER) - Lightly-raced and improving filly has become a better runner since coming here from Golden Gate Fields and switching to the barn of Angel Silva. Cal-bred finished second as the heavy favorite here at this price March 12th in her first start on real dirt, then rallied to finish second in her latest. With a "clean" trip she wins this.

2nd pick: #5 (Smokin Badge) - Nice effort last out going a mile at this price saw her set a pressured pace and hold gamely to finish second. Nicely-bred filly cuts back in distance today and grey daughter of "Silver Deputy" is a win candidate.

3rd pick: #9 (Harley Hart) - She ran a career best last out when finishing fourth and was three back of "Summer" on the wire. Home-bred daughter of "Behrens" draws a nice outside post at this trip and can factor with her best.
