Top pick: #7 (HONOR THE KITTEN) (5-2) - Ramsey home-bred by "Kitten's Joy" looked sharp when breaking his maiden when debuting on the Keeneland "poly" going seven furlongs on April 7. Trainer Mike Maker has this promising colt training fast and will switch him to a surface he was bred to love for his first against winners.

2nd pick: #4 (Mills) (2-1) - Very promising gelding has gone (3-1-2-0) since coming to the races in late March at Gulfatream. Strong finisher rallied to finish second here at this level and distance on May 31, and had some serious traffic issues right out of the gate. He's worked fast since, and is a major player this afternoon.

3rd pick: #5 (Stormy Len) (3-1) - "Len" exits the same May 31 contest as "Mills," and also had some early traffic issues before rallying while wide to check in third. Improving son of "Harlan's Holiday" is in the win mix.

4th pick: #2 (Favor Factor) (6-1) - Another son of "Harlan's Holiday", he rallied to break his maiden on this course going seven furlongs on May 17. Race was his first since debuting at Saratoga in early Sep., and this colt is in the barn of Chad Brown and has plenty of room for upside.
