Top pick: #2 (TACONIC KNIGHT) - Grey gelding by "Eltish" finished second last out at this level going 7 furlongs in the best race of his 8 start career. Speed/stalker has the presumed pace-setter to his left in the gate and that should lead to a perfect stalking trip. The horse to beat.

2nd pick: #1 (Sgt. Silky) - Speedy colt is also by "Eltish" and races off a 4 month layoff this afternoon. Capable Finger Lakes-based barn (Dan Conway Jr.) drops him into a claimer for the first time and colt draws the rail. Three-year-old finished second on this surface last March when making his debut.

3rd pick: #3 (Trinity Warrior) - He's shown a lot of improvement in his last three starts and finished a close-up third here at this level just six days ago. He had a tough outside post that day and draws much better this afternoon. In the final mix.
