(# 1) BLACK ADONIS - Ran a new figure top in last and it was his initial race over this surface. He has experience on many of his rivals, draws the inside, has run consistently good races and figures and is in shape. The Pick.

(# 6) Prime Obsession - Sent on the grass in first race in almost a year. Ran well and that conditioner should set him up well for this race and a return to the dirt.

(# 4) Stolen Forest - Much improved run over this track, which came after a six-week freshening by trainer Rich Schosberg. Was almost 60-1 in that race and has worked well since. Mr. Prado takes over today.

(# 5) Stormy Sucess - Got it going a little too late in last. Interesting in that this colt was very well bet in almost all his starts as a two-year-old. That tells me there is some talent here.
