Top pick: #6 (TAKAJO) (4-1) - Lightly raced and well-bred, he's been freshened up since an impressive maiden win sprinting on Aqueduct's inner-surface March 8. Stalker is in career best form and trainer J.P.Terranova III has him nicely spotted in his first facing winners.

2nd pick: #1 (Billy the Bull) (5-2) - The main speed, "Billy" runs first off a Gary Gullo claim and he brings him back six weeks later at the purchase price. Grey son of "Holy Bull" has the rail and is dangerous on the front end.

3rd pick: #3 (Jesses Giant Dunk) (8-1) - He runs first off a Randi Persaud claim and he moves him up in price and cuts him back in distance. Improving and can factor at a square price.

4th pick: #5 (Bridgeville) (7-2) - Another that's lightly-raced, he went gate-to-wire going two-turns on the inner-surface at Aqu. March 20th to get his maiden win. Well-bred and expensive ($170K), he's with a sharp veteran trainer (Steve Klesaris) and must be left in the mix.
