Top Pick: #2 Nitrogen (6-5) - A fine competitor, with speed and consistency, no matter what the track or post position. Nitrogen has raced at 1 1/8 miles the last three times out, winning twice. She finished second in the Whitney Stakes at 5-to-1 to powerful Sovereignty — no shame there.
2nd Pick: #4 Fully Subscribed (8-5) - This Chad Brown horse has won three in a row at 1 1/8 miles, including a 3 1/2-length win in the Spinster Stakes. Flavien Prat was atop and will be again. In addition, in the last six races at this distance, Fully Subscribed has five victories and one second-place finish.
