Top pick: #1 (NEVER) - Very consistent son of "Vindication" (14-3-4-3) has a strong closing kick and catches a field with several speed types signed on. Draws the ground-saving rail and he's never raced this low before. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #6 (No Dream) - Very wide last out in a small field he wasn't beaten much. Has a sharp drill here Nov. 7 and doubt P. Val will have him wide again. Win threat at a nice price.
3rd pick: #7 (Capture the Call) - Has the best early speed and is working fast for his first race since Sept. 6 at Del mar when he finished a pace-setting second at this $20K tag. His speed makes him dangerous.
