Top pick: #3 (SWAG DADDY) (3-1) - He moves up in class after a near miss facing slightly weaker at Aqueduct on April 13th when racing at this "flat" mile. It was his best since Feb. of 2012 and it came when trainer Rudy Rodriguez added blinlers. Former stakes winner is the only horse entered who has won on this surface in the past.

2nd pick: #6 (Bigger is Bettor) (7-2) - Broman home-bred has developed ito a solid runner and is (4-0-3-1) at this level dating back to late Dec. Strong finisher likes this distance (8-1-3-2) and his record on "wet" tracks is (5-1-3-0).

3rd pick: #5 (Won Great Classic) (6-1) - He's one of two entered by trainer Linda Rice and the pair race uncoupled. He's won more races (6) than any other entered and half of those have come on "wet" tracks. In shape and dangerous.

4th pick: #2 (Hay Shares) (5-2) - The other horse entered by Rice, speedy gelding is undefeated (2-for-2) and will be trying this mile distance for the first time. 3-year-old by "Henny Hughes" has the rail and will take them as far as he can.
