   Before we start saying goodbye to the races for one week, lets remember that before closing day, big purses come in the way... and tomorrow is called the Cash Call Futurity($$$), which has a very unique field but also brings jockeys Ramon Dominguez (US leader this year) and Julien Leparoux (for other races) to the west coast, so competition mood will be on.

   If you are in California and you haven't been to Hollywood Park during the year, this weekend is the last chance for you to go and also get a gift for being there. For example, today fans will receive a blue sweatshirt that will definitely keep them warm during the last races.

   In other news, trainer Doug O'Neill had arrive to his winning race number 500 at HP; however, the highlight of this season keep being trainer Mike Mitchell, who not only is the second all time winning trainer of that track, but also is constantly rocking the winning circle (44% of winning races so far)... Congratulations to both!

   And now, let's check our picks for today's racecard, which has 10 races.


Race 1: CLUE ME IN, MARK OF A WARROR

Race 3: IMPERIALISTIC DIVA, FARLEY STAR... include BORN LUCKY in your 'fectas, it might even get higher on the board.

Race 5: MOUDEZ, DRESS CODE... keep an eye on PORFIDO, threats to get on the board.

Race 6: GENIUS with WALL DANCE and HOPE AND BELIEVE.

Race 9: CashCall Futurity ($750,000): LIAISON, MAJESTIC CITY... keep an eye on SKY KINGDOM and ROUSING SERMON, they'll fight for a top spot.
