Top pick: #2 (CAJUN GENT) - He "stumbled" at the break of his latest and was "eased" after rushing up to contest the pace of today's rival "Brite Eyed n Lucky" who went gate to wire that afternoon. That was his first (and probably last on the grass) and he moves back to real dirt today where he's won 10 of 22 lifetime starts.
2nd pick: #1 (Brite Eyed n Lucky) - As mentioned above, he went wire-to-wire last out on the grass and he's gone (4-3-1-0) since coming here from California and joining the barn of Mike Chambers. That latest score was a career best and this very fast 4-year-old draws the shortest way home. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #3 (Two Violins) - Exits the same last race as the top pair and in that grass sprint he "clipped heels" early and was pulled up. Veteran loves this surface (11-4-5-1) and this hard-hitting grey gelding is a threat from just off the lead.
