Top pick: #3 (TRIPPLITE) - He's the main speed of a race with several front-running types so he'll need a heady ride. He's finished second and third in his last pair after having big leads and the leading trainer at this meet (Juan Vazquez) will drop him into a claimer. Likes wet surfaces (4-2-1-0) and that may be the case this afternoon. The top pick.
2nd pick: #1 (Shawhan Select) - He's entered as part of a John Rigatteiri trained entry and jockey J.C. Caraballo is named on both. Steady performer moves up in price but should get a solid pace to rally into. Threat if he participates.
