No. 8 Five Dreams (4-1) dueled inside and held the place in a local affair at 6 1/2 furlongs on Feb. 13. The consistent gelding likes this course and distance, and his winning pilot Ruben Silvera should have early-pressing options from an outer post.
No. 9 Smooth B (7-2) flees the rail and reconnects with his winning rider Paco Lopez. An outside stalking trip is anticipated.
No. 4 Twisted Ride (5-2) captured his last two local sprints as the favorite, and he defeated my top choice last time. He should make his presence felt throughout.
No. 7 Three Two Zones (9-2) was overmatched in the stakes ranks in his last three starts. The New York shipper might go better in his third start after a layoff.
