Top pick: #5 (REMITTANCE) - New York shipper is a steady performer on the turf when at or around this tag and he brings excellent tactical speed which is the way to win in this course. Looks very tough in this spot from on or just off the top.
2nd pick: #4 (Wotan) - Much improved since switching to the barn of Leigh Delacour he's very well bred and is putting starts together for the first time in his career. Strong finisher won last out at this price and will try 3l foes for the first time. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #6 (Lion Strike) - Gelding by "Lion Heart" cost $210,000 and will race today off an even try at this level and distance June 15. In a very good barn (Jonathan Sheppard) and runner races 3rd back off nearly a two month break. Believe he can grab a piece at nice odds.
