Top pick: #2 (JUSTDONTCALLMEJERI) - Much improved race last out in his second trip to the gate. Tracked a solid pace from a wide draw at this tag and distance and held well after bidding to finish a close-up third. Nice pair of maintenance works since for a very solid barn (Mike Mitchell). Draws the rail and should beat these.
2nd pick: #5 (J B Wine) - Raced evenly last out in the same contest as the top pick. Beaten 3 1/2 lengths by that rival, but this colt could move forward a bit in his second try at a distance.
3rd pick: #9 (No Place Like Home) - Wide in the same race as the choice and wasn't beaten all that much (four lengths). Blinkers will go on today in an attempt to get some more early speed out of him.
