Top pick: #5 (LOVE OF LIFE) - Drops by more than half, and colt showed good debut speed against tougher on June 22nd. His trainer (John Parisella) brings him back quickly and Dominguez takes the re-ride. The top choice.
2nd pick: #4 (Purrfect Alibi) - Another dropping from $35,000 to $16K and this son of "Unbridled's Song" also is going from turf to dirt. May do well at a square price.
3rd pick: #12 (Big Stack) - Well-bet in his debut in an "off the turf" contest, he held good position but backed up when asked for some run. Takes a huge drop today $65,000 down to $16K and his trainer (Richard Dutrow) also adds lasix for this. Trainer wins at a 31% 2nd time out and at an astounding 53% on the lasix angle. Would have liked him a lot more if he didn't have the 12 post. Win contender nontheless.
