Top pick: #3 (TRIPPI APPAEL) - Appears to be nearing a "peak" effort as he dropped down to this tag last out and finished a strong second to a "long gone" winner. Has enough speed to stay close and go by these late.
2nd pick: #4 (Final Story) - Makes his third start back off an eight-week break and he raced evenly in that pair against better. He's been competitive at this tag in the past and should run well today.
3rd pick: #7 (Aflareandaprayer) - Speedy runner tired in the slop last out in his first race in almost four months. Looks like the main speed today and could be much "tighter" in his second off the rest.
