Top pick: #1 (TIGERS WORD) - Colt has run well in his last two starts and in his latest ran a career best when finishing a rallying third at this tag 10 days ago. 4-year-old has the rail, meets a weak field, and a repeat of his latest can get him his maiden win.
2nd pick: #6 (Count Shondor) - He's one of two entered by trainer Arlene Edlkraut and the pair race uncoupled. This lightly-raced gelding rallied last out to finish fourth and was only a neck back of "Tiger". 4-year-old also had some late traffic issues that day and is a win candidate this afternoon.
