Top pick: #3 (WARRING HEART) - Gelding returns from a long layoff (11 months)and in a claimer for the first time. In a winning barn (Julio Canani) and his recent works indicate he's ready to roll. The top pick.
2nd pick: #7 (Brayden Buddy) - Appears to be the main challenger to the top selection. Gelding holds a big recency edge and finished 3rd here last out at this level. Improving with each start and I almost out him on top.
3rd pick: #6 (Whizer) - Gelding is making his 31st start and is still looking for his maiden win. May pass enough late to hit the exotics, buta win wouldd appear a bit out of his reach.
