Top pick: #3 (HITTIN THE NOTE) - Has plenty of back class and 4-year-old New York-bred finished a pace setting/pressing second here on May 24th at this price and distance. Improving with each start since coming back from a 5 1/2 month layoff in April and he's the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #1 (Hawk Three O Eight) - The main speed, he has the rail and "won" at this tag and distance May 21st., but was disqualified for a late infraction. Lightly raced, in a great barn (Bob Reid), and very dangerous if he clears early.
3rd pick: #4 (Avalanche Attack) - The field's only 3-year-old has all the speed to his left in the gate and could sit a nice trip in the clear just off the pace. Has ability and should run well in tis spot.
