Top pick: #4 (GUNDERMAN) - Colt is one of two entered by leading trainer Mark Casse and the pair race uncoupled. Son of "Birdstone" finished secind here at this level going 7 furlongs on Sept. 30 in his best performance yet. Race came off almost a two month break and was his first on this surface. Casse has him stretching out for the first time (a 26% winning angle).
2nd pick: #2 (Cowdray Park) - The second of the Casse duo, colt by "Bernardini" has fine early speed and finished a pace-setting second here at this distance on Sept. 29. Home-bred breaks near the rail and is a win candidate on the front end.
