Premium Pick

Top pick: #2 (BANDIDO TOO) (2-1) - The possible favorite, he's finished second in two straight here, the latest coming May 21 racing for a $50K tag. A career best overall, he's clearly improving, and he's worked fast twice since his latest.

2nd pick: #1 (Best Two Minutes) (6-1) - He's dropping into a claimer for the first time, shortening up in distance, and racing on conventional dirt. Has the rail and runs with blinkers off. Price play.

3rd pick: #5 (Zanqua Star) - Lightly raced gelding missed by a 1/2 length racing here at this distance for 1/2 this tag May 30. Nice effort and the 'figure' earned fits with these. 3yo has room for upside and he has a good chance despite doubling up in claiming price.

4th pick: #4 (Visibility) (4-1) - Gelding has been competitive in all four starts and enters off a career best when beaten a length going a mile here at this level May 10. The only other time he ran at this trip, he finished a strong second March 5 to a winner who repeated next out.
