Top pick: #4 (FABULOUS FAB) (8-1) - Price play runs 3rd back off a 2 1/2 month layoff and showed some interest last out while racing close up while wide before checking in 4th. Donnie Meche is back on the re-ride and this gelding will be a nice price.
2nd pick: #7 (Prized Pal) (5-2) - The probable favorite, he's lightly raced and comes off a career best when finishing 2nd here at this tag & trip Nov 28. Obvious win candidate and I almost put him on top.
3rd pick: #8 (Military Sam) (6-1) - Blinkers go on this 5yo who was 10 back of "Pal" last out, but only a 1/2 length behind him on Nov 9. Can impact with a repeat of that effort.
