Top pick: #1 (UNBRIDLED HEAT) - Hall of Fame trainer H. Allen Jerkens is having a great meet (26-10-4-2) and brings this gray horse back on six days rest after racing evenly in a sprint here at this level. Effort was his first in six weeks and first off a trainer switch to Jerkens. Can win this at a square price.
2nd pick: #2 (Senior's Pride ) - Probable favorite won here at this distance facing weaker last out but he's beaten tougher in the past. Speed/stalker is working "bullets" for this and will be tough to beat, albeit at a short price.
3rd pick: #5 (Clear Faith ) - Jersey-bred continues to run sharply and has really only been sub-par in one of his last 15 starts. Likes the trip and is one for one locally. Can be a part of this.
