Top pick: #6 (WARRIOR'S RIDGE) - Lightly raced and improving, son of "War Chant" has been sharp in all three appearances and last out finished 3rd at this level and distance after setting a pressured pace. Moves out a bit in the gate and stalikng tactics can lead to a maiden win.
2nd pick: #12 (Exultant) - At press time there were no scratches in this contest but this colt is a major factor if he draws in. Improving, in the Sadler barn, and blinkers go on this speed/stalker for the first time.
3rd pick: #9 (American Tanker) - Improving and trainer Vlad Cedrin moves him to the grass for the first time. Bred for the surface ans is working nicely for his first since May 5th.
4th pick: #13 (Fit to Rule) - He's farther out on the a.e. list than "Exultant" but is a strong late factor if he gets to run.
