Verdict: HOLLY GOQUICKLY is the pick of these. She is fancied to reverse the placings with Nakota from their last meeting.

Honky Tonk Rhythm

Jockey: Armando Aguilar Trainer: Ruben Gomez Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 6

Comment: Couldn't land a blow on her debut (here, 1m) at 33-1 five weeks ago; first attempt in claiming company; must make above-average progress to figure despite dropping in class.

Authentic Grace

Jockey: Tiago Pereira Trainer: Neil Drysdale Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 0-854

Comment: Related to Stakes winner Lemoona; didn't run too badly when out of the frame here (beaten 4l, close behind Tavolara) six weeks ago in a maiden claimer; she has a shout as sights are lowered a bit reflected by lower claiming tag.

Holly Goquickly

Jockey: Juan Hernandez Trainer: Michael McCarthy Age/Wt: 4/9-0 F: 07-338

Comment: Bobbled at the start when beaten a long way 28 days ago (behind Nakota) in a maiden claimer; has raised her game the last twice; clear chance despite defeat last time as was third two runs back.

Nakota

Jockey: Hector Berrios Trainer: P Gallagher Age/Wt: 4/9-0 F: 54-554

Comment: Far from disgraced (beaten 1½l); closely matched with Holly Goquickly on that running last month in a maiden claimer; yet to win after 12 starts; encouragement to be gleaned from latest effort so one to watch out for.

Silver Flirt

Jockey: Epifanio Garcia Trainer: D Baker Age/Wt: 5/9-0 F: 622-87

Comment: Not the most consistent of horses lately and winless with run of consecutive defeats standing at 23; beaten a fair way when seventh over 1m here (maiden claimer) 37 days ago; in for a $50k tag so up in class ($8k last time); can't go on the shortlist.

Giggle Giggle

Jockey: Armando Ayuso Trainer: P Eurton Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 646-56

Comment: Yet to manage better than fourth in her five races; could not manage better than sixth over 1m here (maiden claimer) splitting Authentic Grace and Tavolara in February; claiming tag drops to $50k (from $80k); should get involved granted a bit more luck as didn't get the rub of the green last time and has been on the scene in the recent past.

Comment: Unable to land a blow in ninth over 6½f here (maiden special weight) five weeks ago on debut for this trainer; should not be far away as she drops into a maiden claimer for the first time and was a bit unlucky last time.

Pacific Quest

Jockey: Tyler Baze Trainer: Robert Hess Age/Wt: 4/9-0 F: 8-7

Concord Bridge

Jockey: Welfin Orantes Trainer: R Ellis Age/Wt: 4/8-9 F: 365-35

Comment: Was fifth of seven, beaten 11l, in a maiden special weight 28 days ago; has arguably shown improved form the last twice and this is his level; tame effort last time but third two starts back, albeit a fair way off the winner, three months ago; needs considering.

Grinnell

Comment: Finished behind War To Remember in a maiden optional claimer when beaten 10l in February; seems to have stepped up on previous form the last twice; probably unlikely to trouble the principals.

Verdict: FIONELLO looks a solid choice. He represents a trainer whose newcomers are often capable of running well. Mr. Pippins and Trump Era can't be ruled out either.

1	Fionello Jockey: Tiago Pereira Trainer: S Knapp Age/Wt: 2/8-7	SP
Comment: Yard has a good record with newcomers here; related to Finneus, winning form over 5f-7f; holds major claims with signs of encouragement in profile and the hot form of the trainer is a bonus.
2	Mr. Pippins Jockey: Armando Aguilar Trainer: Steven Miyadi Age/Wt: 2/8-7	SP
Comment: Stable gets debut winners here; shares a dam with Case Hit, a 5f winner; on the shortlist as some good aspects to his profile.
3	Jalisco Jockey: Cristobal Herrera Trainer: Felix Rondan Age/Wt: 2/8-7	SP
Comment: Breeding shows he may improve with time; related to Charbonneau (winner from 6f up to 1m½f); interesting to see how he figures in the betting.
4	Flashy Fritz Jockey: William Iii Antongeorgi Trainer: Steven Miyadi Age/Wt: 2/8-7	SP
Comment: Pedigree suggests he may improve with time; course debutants from this trainer always command respect; he should go close as some good aspects to his profile.
5	Trump Era Jockey: Adrian Escobedo Trainer: Ryan Hanson Age/Wt: 2/8-7	SP
Comment: Workout history suggests fitness may not be an issue; trainer has enjoyed debutant winners at this course; looks likely to go well as some good aspects to his profile and sire a rich source of sprint winners.
6	Doing Time Jockey: Armando Ayuso Trainer: Felix Rondan Age/Wt: 2/8-7	SP
Comment: Bred to get better with time; early foal; related to North Fork, winning form over 6f-1m; passed over unless attracting strong support.
7	Mr. Cardenas Jockey: Serafin Carmona Trainer: Jorge Periban Age/Wt: 2/8-2	SP
Comment: Breeding suggests he may get better with age; sibling of Reign Of Speed (6f winner); represents a stable with a strong record here with newcomers; requires market confidence to make him of interest.

Reboso

Jockey: Tyler Baze Trainer: Anthony Saavedra Age/Wt: 3/8-10 F: 8-23112

Comment: Beaten just under 2l (Turf Paradise) last month in an allowance optional claimer; has chalked up two wins from his last three.

Got'm Cot'm

Jockey: Abel Lezcano Trainer: Val Brinkerhoff Age/Wt: 3/8-10 F: 15-637

Comment: Seventh beaten 11l over 6f at Keeneland (allowance optional claimer) last month; others more appealing as meeting a number of horses who are in good form.

Letmein

Jockey: Kazushi Kimura Trainer: M Glatt Age/Wt: 3/8-10 F: 22-241

Comment: Gained a first success at the fifth time of asking when scoring by 12l last month in a maiden claimer; has taken a step forward the last twice; more on his plate but could figure.

Triple Diamonds

Jockey: Antonio Fresu Trainer: M Glatt Age/Wt: 3/8-10 F: 1-156

Comment: Found life tough when 19l back in sixth last month in a stakes; winner of two of his four runs to date; running on dirt for the first time; dropped in grade to claiming level so possesses leading claims.

Race Predictor

Verdict: YOGI BOY is hard to look beyond. He has won twice over this C&D and is the one to beat based on his most recent effort. Known Idea and Caribbean King should also be taken seriously.

Tizz A Good Thing

Jockey: Kyle Frey Trainer: S Knapp Age/Wt: 5/9-0 F: 32-163

Comment: Behind Invincible over 6½f here (claimer) when beaten 11l (third of six) 51 days ago; suited by this C&D; winner three starts back and too soon to write him off; should not be ruled out.

Osage Creek

Jockey: Adrian Escobedo Trainer: Ryan Hanson Age/Wt: 4/9-0 F: 46-511

Comment: Shown recent signs of improvement and on a hat-trick after last win; came out on top by 3l in a claimer two weeks ago; now a lower claiming tag ($30k from $32k) so down in class; easy enough to take on despite that win last time.

Yogi Boy

Jockey: Hector Berrios Trainer: M Puype Age/Wt: 6/9-0 F: 659/21

Comment: Aiming for a third C&D win after his success here six weeks ago; not many miles on the clock; a major contender as from low numbers over this C&D his jockey has an impressive record.

Constant Conflict

Jockey: Edgar Payeras Trainer: Andrew Harris Age/Wt: 7/9-0 F: 32-712

Comment: Close up runner-up in February in a claimer; has winning form over this course and distance on the CV; deeper waters here (in for $30k here, $8k tag last time); others appeal more as no longer in his pomp.

Cody Boy

Jockey: Geovanni Franco Trainer: Javier Sierra Age/Wt: 4/9-0 F: 58-271

Comment: Successful by 2l over 5½f here (claimer) five weeks ago on debut for this trainer; claiming tag rises to $30k here; despite that Santa Anita success, hard to fancy.

Caribbean King

Jockey: Antonio Fresu Trainer: Jeff Mullins Age/Wt: 5/9-0 F: 11-357

Comment: Left backers at 7-5 frustrated when seventh over 7½f at Turf Paradise (allowance optional claimer) two months ago; C&D has proven suitable before; he can be competitive at this level; has '1s' by his name and capable of going well.

Known Idea

Jockey: Juan Hernandez Trainer: John Sadler Age/Wt: 4/9-0 F: 810-

Comment: Finished tenth of 12 six months ago in an allowance race; he meets the required standard ability wise; returns from a layoff here; one to be interested in if duplicating the form of his most recent win and was a winner two starts ago.

Incredible Shot

Jockey: Edwin Maldonado Trainer: Craig Dollase Age/Wt: 5/9-0 F: 534-2

Comment: A while since his last success and shown all winning form at Golden Gate Fields (two successes); finished a decent second of seven in an allowance race (quarter horse) on his first start for this trainer dropped back in distance at Los Alamitos (bumped at the start) five weeks ago.

Rexford

Jockey: Ricardo Gonzalez Trainer: Philip D Amato Age/Wt: 5/9-0 F: 427-23

Comment: One-time useful performer and has maintained his consistent level of form; finished ahead of three of these in February when third beaten just over 2l in a starter allowance; is respected as plenty to like about workout last Sunday and shown he can get his head in front.

Nero Tulip
