Top pick: #5 (LOVMEISTER) (3-1) - Colt has early speed and has finished close up in both at this meet since dropping down to this tag. In shape, and there's lots of potential pace signed on to set up his stretch rally.
2nd pick: #7 (Cori Celesti) (15-1) - Longshot won her debut last fall at Fairplex, then tired badly a month later at Santa Anita in her first facing winners. On the sidelines since, 4-year-old has some fien works showing, gets blinkers on, and you know that she can fire "fresh." Filly tackles the boys, but it's a weak field overall.
3rd pick: #2 (Russel's Run) (3-1) - Gelding drops in class, goes turf to "poly," and shortens up three furlongs fo this assignment. He ran well in his only previous synthetic track effort and is in the win mix this afternoon.
4th pick: #3 (Talk the Walk) (7-2) - He aslo goes grass to "poly," drops dow, and cuts back in real estate. Can factor with his best.
