(# 7) CRUSADER RABITT - Logical selection and probable favorite. Has the best races of the entrants, and can stalk and pounce. Has had the benefit of many inside draws, so he'll need to work out a trip even in this smallish field from the outside post

(# 1) Cat Criminal - Is gradually being raced into winning shape by top trainer Steve Klesaris. He's been in some tough fields at Delaware, and he may be approaching his beat.

(# 3) My Three Boys - Poor start and traffic trouble have plagued him in last pair. Has the best speed if he breaks cleanly, and could be gone if unchallenged.

(# 6) Call You Raise You - Has the race's strongest closing kick. There is a tricky pace situation that exists here, and I believe that it will be slower than normal in here which would hurt his chances. Still is dangerous.
