Premium Pick

Top pick: #6 (CENTER DIVIDER) - Son of "Giant's Causeway" ran a career best last out when he was beaten a 1/2 length by "Grassy" going 11 furlongs here in the G2 Bowling Green H. five weeks ago. He doesn't have a lot of speed, but is a strong finisher and has worked three times up at Saratoga since his latest race. The horse to beat, but reverse your exactas.

2nd pick: #1 (Mr. Ryder) - Lightly-raced colt has won five of his last six starst (all on the grass) and last out at Delaware three months ago he won the $100K Sussex S. to get his first important win. Another son of "Giant's Causeway", he has the rail, is working well, and 4-year-old has won on this surface in the past.

3rd pick: #2 (Yummy With Butter) - Veteran Ontario-bred has won almost $600K and comes into this off a pair of stakes wins at Monmouth in G3 events. Has more speed than most entered and is working fast for this attempt. Seven-year-old is a win candidate.
