Pace Scenario: The inside speed of this maiden claimer restricted to Cal breds is the Pick of the Day who will dictate the way under the capable rider Juan Ochoa.
Pick of the Day:
# 4 SEEMS TO ME showed noticeable improvement off a freshening May 13, rallying from the back of the field to finish a good 4th at 32-1. This daughter of champion sprinter Housebuster then showed much improved early speed on June 4. She dueled from the start, opened up a big lead in the stretch, but weakened late at a distance that might have been a bit beyond her best. She now cuts back to 6.5 furlongs, which should make her tough in this spot as the inside speed. Good apprentice Juan Ochoa rode her for the first time on June 4 and should know her even better this time around.
Wagering Strategy:
