Top pick: #5 (Gold Castle) - Runs today first off a Jamie Ness claim(a 31% winning angle)and he brings him back on 12 days rest after he took him at Laurel on the 9th. Consistent, is in sharp form, and has beaten better in the past. Very tough with his best.
2nd pick: #1 (Secret Commander) - He doesn't win very often (3 for 39) but almost always pits in a late run and he races 2nd back off a brief vacation. Gelding finished 3rd last out at Churchill on Nov.24th and has a bullet work here on Dec. 6th.
3rd pick: #6 (Dazzling Dr. Cologne) - Loves this surface(7 for 11) and he races 2nd back off a three month vacation. Veteran gelding finished 4th here after chasing the pace facing tougher on Dec.3rd and the drop today makes him a threat.
