Top pick: #1 (SAY GOODBYE) - Speedy gelding draws the rail and will drop down to race in a career soft spot price wise. Competitive in all four of his starts facing tougher and he catche's a field without much visible pace signed on. The top selection.
2nd pick: #3 (Wee Freudian) - Colt had a very "troubled" debut last Sept. at Belmont going long on the grass and returns off a 6 1/2 month break with several changes. Trainer Chad Brown will drop him into a claimer, shorten him up in distance, and move him from turf to dirt. Working fine and a win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (Iron Lou) - He had a terrible trip in his debut but still rallied to finish second facing slightly weaker on Jan. 16. Working well for his return and trainer Rick Dutrow wins at a 33% rate second out and is 36% off of long breaks.
