Level Playingfield...Horse lilkes the track and the trip and trainer is off to a good start at the meet.
Deputy Storm...Really debated about putting this one on top -- he might jet out of gate and not look back, but he shuld have some company early and fade job last time is a minor concern.
That Tat...Is part of the gimmicks more often than not.
Pro Prado.

Maddalena...2-2 so far. Won debut in April then sat out until facile victory in January NW1 return. Hard to ignore the impressive number.
Portsea...Could complete a Pletcher exacta. Off since fade job in G2 Spinaway made return in small stake at Tampa and won nicely.
Aspen Tree...Won in debut and has since just missed in two efforts -- including a $100K stake at Churchill. Dangerous.

...$2 tri key Devil At Sea over next three.
Ran 5/1-2-4.

Devil At Sea...Solid win in December debut. Came back to look good in mid-stretch in NW1, only to be caught by the fave late. That experience could count today.
Defer...Graded stakes winner has only one loss on resume and it was against Rockport Harbor.
Proud Accolade...Might appreciate the return to a one-turn trip.

Dance Away Capote...Will be rolling late.
Kristen Kristen.

Forest Danger scratched.

Wager: $5 WP on Forest Danger.
Scratched.
...$2 exacta box top two.
Scratched.
...$2 tri key Forest Danger over next three.
Scratched.

Forest Danger...Seemed to be developing into a potential superstar for Pletcher early last year. Off since running second to Medallist last May but expect he'll be ready for return.
Medallist...Strung a couple of big wins together last summer so that might bode well coming off of a return to good form in last.
Kela...Also capable of throwing in a monster effort when in the mood. Just missed in BC Sprint two back with Bailey onboard.
Paradise Dancer.

Roses in May...Expect a battle between this one and Saint Liam -- how big a battle will decide what happens but this one just looks to have enough class to get the job done here.
Saint Liam...Took Ghostzapper through some blazing fractions in Woodward and just missed.
Eddington.

Closing Argument 7-1

Dearest Mon...Nice improving form in three starts. Beat Devil At Sea last time so watch that one in the Hutcheson to get a line on this guy.
Criminal Mind...Always in the mix and ran second behind Pletcher's promising Harlington last time.
Closing Argument.

...$2 exacta box top two.
Ran 3-5.
...$1 exacta box top four.
Ran 3-4-5.
...$1 tri box top four.
Ran 3-4-5.

Chekhov...Has yet to live up to $3 mil+ purchase price in two starts -- but might have some legit upside still to show. None of these have been revealed as a star yet so it's a good spot for him.
Giacomo...Ran a very good second to 2YO champ Declan's Moon last time.
Iced Out...Improving numbers with each start.
Uncle Denny.

Rock Hard Ten 4-5
Imperialism 7-1
Love of Money 3-1

Wager: $5 WP on Rock Hard Ten.

Collected $10.00 on the ex box ($20.00/$2).
...$1 tri box top four.
Collected $31.20 on the tri box ($62.40/$2).

Rock Hard Ten...Returned to the races in a very tough G1 -- the 7F Malibu. The win in that stake could signal he's going to be a contender in the older division this year.
Love of Money...Might rate him higher expect the layoff is a concern. Trainer is OK there however and he might be able to control things up front.
Castledale...Still have a soft spot for this one after he came in for us at 30-1 in last year's G1 Santa Anita Derby. Returned from long layoff with an even effort last time -- expect better today.
Imperialism.
