Top pick: #4 (SARATOGA SWING) - Colt really hasn't shown all that much but takes a big drop this afternoon and trainer Barclay Tagg will also add blinkers. Three-year-old son of "Birdstone" cuts-back in distance, has a bullet work July 6th, and Dominguez climbs aboard for the first time. The top pick.
2nd pick: #8 (Bwana Be Bad) - He set a fast pace after breaking poorly when debuting here on the grass facing tougher June 29th. Trainer Gary Contessa brings him back quickly, drops him in price, and switches him to the dirt.
3rd pick: #3 (D'Bulldog) - He was bet in his debut in late March at Aqueduct, but caught a sloppy track and tired after setting the pace. Gelding ran fourth that day in a race where all three that finished in front of him won their next starts.
4th pick: #1a (Grand Rapture) - Entered as a coupling with No. 1 "Believe in You" and they have separate riders listed so both may run. Colt finished fourth in his debut here May 7th and is working sharply for his return. Trainer Dom Galluscio is having a great meet and this 3-year-old by "Purge" is a contender.
