Top pick: #8 (MARINE) - Debuting colt from first crop stallion "Any Given Saturday" cost $225K and trainer Todd Pletcher has him race for $25K first out. Spotted to win and he had a sharp half-mile breeze from the gate here on Oct. 3. Pletcher's main rider (John Velazquez) is aboard.

2nd pick: #4 (Chyhyryn) - Trainer Chris Clement (likes to give them one start) before asking them for their best and he "legged up" this colt last out in a one mile grass race running for $65K. Barn drops him way down in price, switches him to the dirt, shortens him up in distance, and adds lasix. Clement wins at a 20% rate second time out and is an excellent 36% when adding lasix.

3rd pick: #5 (Copy My Swagger) - The probable favorite finished second when debuting at this distance and price three weeks ago. He's worked fine since and showed speed first out. Contender.
