Top pick: #6 (ANTHONY) - The probable favorite, he takes a huge drop in class and has the best early speed of this field. Last out he chased a fast pace and tired badly in an entry-level allowance just 18 days ago. At this $5000 price-tag he'll be very tough to beat on the front-end.
2nd pick: #9 (Unbridled Eltiempo) - Price play stalked and finished evenly here at this level and distance Oct. 25. He'd come Louisisna Downs a month earlier in fine form and that latest was his first local appearance. In a winning barn and a threat at expected long odds.
3rd pick: #4 (Sleeve) - Veteran has been sharp in both outings since switching to the Caldwell barn. 6-year-old has a flexible style, will be cutting back in distance, and can factor with his best.
