Top pick: #2 (RUN TO GROUND) - Colt has shown excellent early speed in a pair facing tougher and is working fast on this surface for his first start since June 16th. His connections race him in a claimer for the first time and he draws near the rail. An alert start takes this.
2nd pick: #8 (Mark's Cat) - He's also shown good speed in four of his five outings. Colt ships north from Del Mar in shape and drops to a new low in price. Dangerous if he can avoid being hug wide into the turn.
3rd pick: #6 (Trice Up) - Colt has raced evenly at Del Mar in his last pair and wasn't beaten by much in either. It's a plus to see veteran Art Sherman reach out to Marty Pedroza today as he's won with 3 of his last 12 when riding for him.
