OffTrackBetting.com - Berkeley, CA (March 28, 2018) - Twelve older routers will travel the distance of eight furlongs in the feature race of the Golden Gate Fields Winter/Spring meet, the San Francisco Mile, a Grade 3 turf event with a $200,000 purse. The San Francisco Mile will go as Race 8 on the 9-race card this Saturday, March 31, with an approximate post time of 4:15 PM PDT. Here is the field in post-position order:

#1 EDITORE (6-1 on the morning line, Jockey Brice Blanc, Trainer Paulo Lobo) was a dominant winner of the Berkeley Handicap (G3) on November 25. Since then, the Brazilian-bred has finished third in both the San Gabriel Stakes (G2) and the San Marcos Stakes (G2) at Santa Anita. Both aforementioned races were on turf.

#2 FRANK CONVERSATION (3-1, Juan Hernandez, Doug O'Neill, 3-1) makes his first start of 2018. The son of Quality Road won the California Derby and the El Camino Real Derby in 2016 and was victorious in the Twilight Derby (G2) at Santa Anita that same year. His most recent afternoon appearance resulted in a third-place finish in the John Henry Turf Championship (G2) last October.

#3 SYNTAX (4-1, Geovanni Franco, Phil D'Amato) finished fourth in the Frank Kilroe Mile (G1) on March 10 and rounded out the superfecta, finishing ahead of Breeders' Cup Mile winner World Approval in the process. This will be his second start off an eight-and-a-half month break.

#4 AQUA FRIO (20-1, Billy Antongeorgi III, Blaine Wright) is conditioned by Blaine Wright and owned by Peter Redekop; they teamed up to win the San Francisco Mile in 2016 and 2017 with Alert Bay. Aqua Frio most recently defeated Many Roses in an allowance race on February 16 and his most significant victory came in the Seattle Slew Stakes on dirt at Emerald Downs last summer.

#5 CAMINO DEL PARAISO (10-1, Catalino Martinez, O.J Jauregui) lost by a head in the $200,000 Unusual Heat Turf Classic for California-breds at Santa Anita on January 27. His most recent start in the Bay Area was last fall when finishing third in the Berkeley Handicap (G3) on the Tapeta.

#7 FLAMBOYANT (6-1, Julien Couton, Paddy Gallagher) is about $40,000 shy of $1,000,000 in career earnings. The seven-year-old gelding finished third in the Pattison Canadian International (G1) at Woodbine this fall and won a pair of Grade 2's at Santa Anita earlier in his career.
