Top Pick: #1 Big Truzz (10-1) - This horse is the son of Triple Crown winner Justify and will have Joel Rosario aboard. He's finished first and second in two races. Big Truzz was impressive at Keeneland, winning despite being forced to the outside as runners to his inside closed ranks for the homeward drive.
2nd Pick: #10 Chancer McPatrick (4-1) - This Chad Brown horse has been stretched out to over one mile in the last three races, finishing second once and fourth twice. Now he gets back to under one mile, where he's 3-0. That includes a win in the Grade 1 Champagne Stakes and the Grade 1 Hopeful. Veteran Flavien Prat will be atop.
3rd Pick: #7 Colloquial (6-1) - This 3-year-old colt has won two races, showcasing speed and competitiveness. Colloquial won gate-to-wire the last time out at 7 furlongs on a dirt track to take the Lafayette Stakes by 2 1/4 lengths. Colloquial was pressed by Smoken Wicked but was fierce down the stretch. That followed a 6 1/2 furlong win at Aqueduct.
