(# 4) Multiple Choice - Was winless for a long time prior to his Dec. 29 victory to close out the year. Ran very well in an extremely contentious $35K claimer off a slight freshening on Feb. 16. The field he encounters today really would be more at home at the $16,000 claiming level, so this is a double drop for him. Boasts a relevance and fitness edge over main rivals for Imperio, who has really never been a great layoff trainer.

(# 5) The Midnight Skier - Returns off a brief freshening. Good pace-pressing win on Jan. 19 vs. softer competition. Meets a field lacking early pace and should run well off the break stepping up. Adores six furlongs and the inner track.

(# 6) Charming Jim - A one run closer, got the perfect trip to win on Jan. 19. Will need a similar set-up today facing a tougher bunch. Rarely puts back-to-back strong races together.

The Plays: $10 to win on #4.
$6 exacta boxes on 4-5 and 4-6.
Total Wager = $34.00.
