Top pick: #7 (REDWOOD FALLS) - $200,000 son of "Indian Charlie" ships up from Gulfstream for the Pletcher barn after a pace-chasing 3rd place finish when debuting there at a "flat" mile on Jan.30th. Colt has a trio of excellent works at the Palm Meadows training center since and can make his first start at "Big A" a winning one.
2nd pick: #1 (Iscar) - He's part of a Darley Stable entry and they both may run as they have different jockeys named. This son of "Bernardini" has been competitive in his last pair at this trip and today he draws the rail. 3yr.old has a pair of strong works since his last race and is the main danger.
3rd pick: #5 (Savannah Bay) - This runner cost $1.2M and is already 5yrs.old and is still seeking his first win. Gelding by "Mineshaft" has good early speed and finished 2nd last out at this level, though only 4 ran in that contest. His speed makes him dangerous.
