8) 1,2,5,8,9
Feel uneasy about this race, and just want to get by it.

9) 2,10,14
Not including Col. John, despite nice win in the Real Quiet, plus his debut turned out to be the key maiden race at the Del Mar meet. Despite this, the Real Quiet was basically an allowance field, and this is much, much tougher. At short odds, I'll try and beat him. Love Monba and Referee from Pletcher, and wanted to include either Into Mischief or Massive Drama, and just decided to go with the Baffert's charge.

10) 2,3,4,8
Taking a stand against the Mitchell horse Quinton's Shocker. Don't like the layoff and drop in for a tag. The horse is only 3 years old, so if he is good as looked last summer, he wouldn't be in this race. This the 2 horse can surpriseif he has anything at all left in the tank (at a nice price).

11) 6
Had to single here, as I didn't want to go any higher on this ticket. Could be Hollendorfer's 5000th win. Gotta love the cut back in distance, and the old reliable Mike Smith-off angle as well.

5x3x4x1 = $60

Good luck to all and go riddance to the fall hollywood meet!
