Top pick: #2 (MILITARYDRESSBLUES) - He's yet to run a bad race and broke his maiden racing for $8K on March 6. Last out at this level and distance he finished a close-up 3rd in his first start vs. winners. Gelded son of "Formal Gold" can win this with a late move.
2nd pick: #5 (Who's Your Papa) - In the dangerous barn of Steve Sherman and lightly-raced gelding will drop in price, stretch-out in distance, and gets the addition of blinkers. Sharp recent drill adds to the positives. He would be no surprise.
3rd pick: #6 (Topanga Love) - Once clasier runner has raced evenly at this level in two starts following a 8 1/2 month layoff. Can be in the exotics picture with a slight move forward.
