#7 CORONADO'S PRIDE (ML=8/1)
#4 GOLD TRIM (ML=5/2)
#1 PRESIDENTIAL CAUSE (ML=3/1)
#2 LIKE NEW MONEY (ML=5/1)


CORONADO'S PRIDE - The ROI when Court and Knapp get together is out of sight. This is a classic 'Lone Front-runner' scenario. If Court gets him out of the gate cleanly it'll likely be smooth sailing. This horse is in the top spot in earnings per race. He looks strong in today's clash. Personally, I wouldn't worry about where he finished in his last race (fourth). Should improve in this race, with some pretty decent odds. GOLD TRIM - This gelding has been running at higher class levels previously. He did win versus better, a $32,000 Claiming race though. I believe this one is in the right spot today. This gelding is in excellent condition right now. Ended up second last race out and comes back promptly. This gelding's last figure is good enough to triumph here, I'll wager on him back again in today's event. PRESIDENTIAL CAUSE - Bejarano and O'Neill partnered with one another are a railbird's friend. While the finish was disappointing, this fine animal made a good stretch move last race out at Santa Anita. Have to give a better effort in this event. LIKE NEW MONEY - This gelding is in good physical condition. Ran fifth on Apr 13th.

Vulnerable Contenders: #8 SORTA GOLD (ML=6/1), #3 JAMES THE THIRD (GB) (ML=6/1), #9 COUNT ORANGE (ML=8/1),

SORTA GOLD - He showed not much at all in the last race. When examining today's Equibase class figure, he will have to notch a better speed fig than last time around the track to battle in this dirt route. JAMES THE THIRD (GB) - Just cannot play this vulnerable equine. Didn't show me anything last out or on February 11th. COUNT ORANGE - This mount will have a tough time winning this 1 1/16 miles dirt race. He just doesn't win races very often.
