9: Dickey Bob (Velazquez, Olmstead)122/9-2
TEXAS EYE just missed in debut and was flattered when winner and show runner came back to win. EOS WING MAN has paid dividends in both starts. DICKEY BOB warrants respect after a couple of solid performances.

8: Kaelies Dividend (Delgado, Hardy)122/8-1
9: Gonnamakeyou Famous (Reyes, Willis)122/6-1
EAGLE DELUXE will be doing his best flying late, so be patient. QUINTTESSENCE dueled throughout but was refused getting to the wire first. GONNAMAKEYOU FAMOUS is a first-time starter with a few quick morning drills.

8: Apollitical Valor (Velazquez, Olmstead)122/8-1
9: Miss Jess Carter (Shepherd, Shults)122/5-1
MISS JESS CARTER led but was outbobbed in debut and appears the one to beat. CK ANNALEA won her debut in driving fashion and is a strong contender for back-to-back wins. A SHADE OF MIDNIGHT has a win and place honors under her belt. ANOTHER LEGACY just missed by a neck in her first start with a late bid.

8: First of 15 (Velazquez, Olmstead)122/2-1
9: Ahhhsome (Vega, Hunt)122/15-1
FIRST OF 15 has the class and experience edge over her rivals. THE POLAR VORTEX was second best in a much-improved effort last out. MS VERONICA lost the photo in a three way battle in her debut.

9: Bobby Elvis (Packer, Olmstead)122/5-1
10: Prada Prada Prada (Reyes, Willis)122/7-2
PRADA PRADA PRADA just missed last out and now gets ideal post to avoid early traffic problems. Trainer Jason Olmstead sends out BOBBY ELVIS, AGENT CARTER and MASTER OF THE SKY, all major players.

9: Marfilmio (Smith, Hanson)122/9-2
10: High Valley Girl (Vega, Hunt)122/6-1
OLIVIAS JETT won easily last out in a powerful performance. MARFILMIO has been close but has yet to have a clean start. Spotless break could put him in the winner's circle at a decent price. A JORDON REED surged late to break his maiden last out as the favorite.

7: Trolley (Loveberry, Sweere)124/20-1
8: Imagine If (Sanchez, Rhone)124/3-1
9: Angelnaule (Ramgeet, Oliver)124/8-1
FIRST EMBRACE suffered through wide trip but battled until the end last effort, getting outkicked. Gets positive jockey switch with Butler at the helm. LADY BABAKO won by five lengths at today's distance to start the 2017 campaign with a bang. Should be in the hunt from the start. BLACKHAWK'S SIS and IMAGINE IF finished behind First Embrace last out.

14: Been Busy (Goodwin, Pfeifer)119/20-1
15: No Rotary Dial (Velazquez, Biehler)119/12-1
ACADEMIC BAY just missed by a nose facing tougher, and now drops for half the price and gets a extra half-furlong to work with. NO BLING has been training steadily for his return off the extended absence for Mac Robertson. Look of contender off the works alone. WHISKEY LEGEND exits a spirited pace duel against stronger foes, where he landed in the third spot. Might last longer than most think.

7: Jam N Addy (Ramgeet, Diodoro)120/3-1
8: Vanderbilt Beach (Loveberry, Rengstorf)124/6-1
JAM N ADDY will attempt to lull the field to sleep as lone speed with a group of hunters chasing him. Stablemate INFINITE MAGIC, will tour the course from the rear of the field and make one big run. Class of the field been facing better on the West Coast. HIGH SIDE is a confirmed closer and might sit a tad closer to the pace with the inside draw.

6: Adens Dream (Butler, Robertson)120/6-1
7: Choir Director (Loveberry, Villafranco)122/5-2
VESTIBULE returns to the local track, where he has done his best running. He's been on the habit of running a good race every other, so it's his turn to run a good one from off the pace. CHOIR DIRECTOR is coming off an impressive victory, winning by over four lengths at Prairie Meadows. Repeat of that effort will make him a tough opponent. Mac Robertson's duo of I'M A LAWMAN and ADENS DREAM are major players, second off the layoff with tactical speed.

9: Mina Lake (Velazquez, Van Winkle)124/6-1
10: Best Trick Yet (Canchari, Canchari)124/10-1
SOMSI will be extremely tough to beat if he can regain his turf form and speed from last year. I think we can draw a line through his last race, when he threw in the towel sprinting on the main track. FOUR THREE is an interesting alternative if you don't like the favorite. Had a nice win in this turf sprint last year at Canterbury and might appreciate the reunion with the grass after a disappointing effort on the dirt last out. HOLY BRASS should come out smokin', clashing with others on the lead. Another runner who does his best running on the lawn.

5: Genithelamborghini (Ramgeet, Lund)119/5-1
6: Derby Dance (Mojica, Rengstorf)119/4-1
FEISTY TOMBOY has been sidelined for a extended period but has an encouraging work tab coming in. Tackled tougher in her two starts last year in Kentucky. Strictly the one to beat for a hot outfit. GENITHELAMBORGHINI is a candidate for improvement, shipping up from Prairie Meadows for trainer Valorie Lund. DERBY DANCE was runner-up on the turf last out and could prove tough if she can transfer that form to the dirt surface.
