Premium Pick

Top pick: #10 (DIAMOND TYCOON) - Colt did not race well in England, but with the addition of lasix in his first U.S. race he went right to the lead and was caught in the last few strides, losing by a neck. Any move forward off of that one will win this.

2nd pick: #5 (He's Solid Gold) - Sharpened in a sprint last out, top Canadian trainer Malcolm Pierce will send him a route off of that prep race. Has the talent to compete here, and at a square price.

3rd pick: #1 (House of Silver) - Hasn't raced since March, but his trainer (Wally Dollase) has a track record of doing well with his returning grass specialists. Gelding has been in very steady training for the past three months, so he should be fit enough.
