Top pick: #7 (CAROLINIAN) (4-1) - Price play was scratched out of a dirt stakes on Saturday to await this spot. Colt by "Yes It's True" is the only multiple winner entered and entesr this with two in a row. Working fast and he was an impressive winner on this course going 7-furlongs on Sept. 12.
2nd pick: #4 (May Shares) (5-2) - He's been sharp in both starts and broke his maiden here on this course going 6-furlongs in fast time Sept. 27. Stalker from the Rice barn is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (A P Johnson) (3-1) - Grey filly is from the same bar as "May" (Linda Rice) annd will be taking on males in this stakes. Filly was a sharp winner when debuting in a grass sprint at Saratoga on Aug. 30 and can factor with a repeat of that effort.
4th pick: #3 (Blue Lark) (8-1) - The field's only maiden, he finished fourth here at this trip when debuting on Oct. 6. He showed good early speed that day and could grab a share at a big price.
