Top pick: #1 (R CLEAR VICTORY) - The clear speed of the contest and he draws the rail. Just missed last out in his first back from a trip to Minnesota and his first in almost two months. Working well for the Asmussen barn and he can take these wire-to-wire.
2nd pick: #2 (Stunt Man) - Highly thought of at one time, he returned at Saratoga from a six month layoff and did not run well in his three starts. Working very fast for this, he's apparently over any problems he has had. Dominguez, who has had success on him in the past is aboard.
3rd pick: #8 (Tommasi) - Won an overnight stake at Saratoga at this distance, but that was around two turns and this is only one. He ran very poorly in this race last year, but he's in the best shape of his career at present. Working sharply and the barn (Jim "007" Bond) has been hot.
4th pick: #12 (That's Right Officer) - He's improved as the year has gone along and he finished second at this distance on this course last out. Could impact this with a nice stalking trip.
