Default Orange Tree?

What would be my best bet given the following :

1) clay soil
2) lots of sun (especially in afternoon)
3) live in Dublin, CA (slightly inland from San Francisco)

They do need good drainage, so with clay, you may have to make a raised
bed.

You beat me to it! Citrus demand good drainage. The raised bed may be
a good idea. As citrus are shallow rooting, the friable sandy loam in
the raised bed won't need to be all that deep.
