Top pick: #7 (RUNWAYEIGHTYFOUR) - Speedy colt by "Mineshaft" ships here from Gulfstream and races off a trainer change to Dom Galluscio and a two-month layoff. He's shown excellent early foot in his last four starts and just missed when racing at this level in Florida Jan. 25. Galluscio wins at an 18% rate with new arrivals and a 21% clip off of long breaks.
2nd pick: #1 (Jade Glory Again) - He's part of a Randi Persaud entry and with apprentice Ortiz listed on both only one will run. This lightly-raced colt has improved in all three starts since debuting and finished second last out on this surface. Major threat if he runs.
