Premium Pick

Top pick: #6 (QUICK ENOUGH) - He moves back to the turf following a strong 2nd place finish last out on the Hollywood "poly" to the talented and heavily favored "Cost of Freedom". Lightly raced 7yr.old has run well on this "tricky" course in the past and stalker has all his speed to his left. Can run them down late in an extremely competitive small field.

2nd pick: #5 (Regally Ready) - He went "through the roof" last out at Churchill when he won easily in his first ever on the turf. In the barn of Steve Asmussen and Joel Rosario takes this runner over "Afleet Ruler". He gives away a lot of experience, but his turf win can't be dismissed lightly.

3rd pick: #1 (Dance With Gable) - He's undefeated on this surface ( 3 for 3) and all three have come at this 6.5 furlong trip. Has a flexible style and he's a relatively "fresh" runner. Win candidate.
