It’s the last hurrah
For the class of ’07
A loaded sprint field

#1 – Paris Vegas
Life imitates name
Big spots haven’t been his best
Wouldn’t have high hopes
#2 – Alcindor
Late-blooming prospect
He’s going for the gusto
Off two career starts
#3 – Thiskyhasnolimit
Second-tier circuit
Well-traveled colt tries west coast
Should like shorter task
#4 – Caracortado
Ex-claimer’s comeback
Dirt, top-tier form is shaky
Look for him next year
#5 – Noble’s Promise
Reborn in sprint ranks
Came back strong from Euro trip
Very dangerous
#6 – Setsuko
Back from eight-month rest
Needs some time to get rolling
Not feeling this spot
#7 – Don Tito
Calder vibes are hot
Nice surprise in first stakes try
Worth note for supers
#8 – Thomas Baines
Tried Cal Derby trail
Then sank back to claiming ranks
Nothing’s changed since spring
#9 – Twirling Candy
High upside speedball
Brings it at one turn or two
Won’t melt on the pace
#10 – Our Minesweeper
No-Cal-er tries dirt
Didn’t light up overnights
Sweep him to the curb
#11 – Smiling Tiger
West coast’s top sprinter
Beat older foes all summer
Solid as a rock

Who’s best in the ‘Bu?
The five horse looks promising
Nine and eleven
The Michigan-Bred Claimer
