Top pick: #3 (PRESENT COURSE) (6-5) - The probable favorite, he runs first off a Jeff Radosevich claim, and the day he was claimed he finished second on the Saratoga turf racing for a 425K tag. Working fast since, he should beat these despite moving to the dirt.
2nd pick: #5 (Evan's Bad Boy) (8-1) - His best races have come on the turf, but he did finish fourth here on the main-track just nine days ago on a very deep & muddy surface. In the mix and at a square price.
3rd pick: #1 (Benzin Benz) (4-1) - Stronach home-bred is working steadily for his debut, and colt is bred to be a good horse. He has the rail and is a factor if ready.
4th pick: #7 (The Names Fred) (6-1) - Speedy sort set a pressured pace and held to finish third here at this level and distance on Sept. 10th in his first since March 16. Well-bred, and a threat on the front end.
