Top pick: #6 (ABOVE PAR) - Lightly raced and well-bred, 4-year-old by "Tale of the Cat" has been competitive in all three starts and rallied to finish second here at this tag and trip on June 1st. Gelding is making back-to-back starts for the first time and had a bullet work on the 12th.
2nd pick: #8 (Hidden Quest) - Obvious contender has finished second in four of his five starts, including three straight on this surface at this price. Speed/stalker draws a nice outside post and is a strong factor.
3rd pick: #3 (Run'n On Residuals) - Debuting gelding by "Bertrando" is working both fast and frequently on this surface for his first start and is in a small but capable barn (Kathy Walsh). The presence of Jeff talamo signals that his connections like his chances.
