Top pick: #7 (SMOKIN HERO) - Gelding has finished second in all four of his appearances. Has excellent early speed to call upon and draws outside which should lead to an easy lead. The choice for the win.
2nd pick: #2 (Vinnie Van Go) - Improving runner rallied late in his last to finish second to a runaway winner. Sharp work since and son of "Hook and Ladder" is the main danger.
