Top pick: #12 (ROAN RENEGADE) (6-1) - Improving sort comes off a career best when he finished second at this level and distance Aug. 12th. Stalker draws a nice outside post, and is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #9 (Leisurely Stroll) (5-1) - He disappointed last out when he raced evenly while finishing 8 1/2 back of "Renegade." Gelding had finished second in his previous start, and can factor with a repeat of that run.
3rd pick: #4 (Candid Response) (12-1) - Lasix is added to gelding who has been competitive in one of three starts. Drops to a new low, and could factor at a big price.
4th pick: #3 (West On Main) (9-2) - Speedy sort takes the big drop into claimers for the first time, and should find himself involved from start-to-finish against this field.
5th pick: #5 (Charlie St Gold) (7-2) - No speed type has finished second in his last pair without ever threatening to do better. May rally again for another minor award.
