Top pick: #9 (I'M ENTITLED) - Quick runner is positioned outside the other speed and think he'll get a trip tracking "Fra" and be able to go by that one turning for home.
2nd pick: #4 (Fra Lippo) - Speedy gelding appears to be a bit of a "free" spirit and has proven very hard to handle in his last pair. Freshened-up since August 23,the patient hands of Chris Clement may have settled him down a bit.
3rd pick: #6 (Mahopac) - Last was better than it looks, as he raced in heavy traffic down on the hedge and both horse and rider were a bit intimidated late. Nice drill on Oct. 7 and he's ready to run well.
