Top pick: #9 (MONTE) - Gelding runs third off a Rudy Rodriguez claim and a subsequent two month break. Four-year-old has raced evenly facing tougher in his first pair off the layoff and they've come facing tougher. Barn drops him below the purchase price and will cut him back in distance this afternoon. He draws a good posta and is the horse to beat.

2nd pick: #8 (Goldenstatewarrior) - Recent maiden winner did so when trainer Dom Schettino added blinkers and barn brings him back in two weeks for his first facing winners. Dominguez is aboard and think this lightly-raced gelding can contend at a nice price.

3rd pick: #6 (Con the Cat) - Drops and cuts-back in distance in his first race off a 2 1/2 month layoff. He has some ability and is working above average for this attempt.
