Top pick: #3 (VALUATION) - Stretches out a bit after a strong pace-pressing third-place finish at Del Mar, racing for $30K going 7 furlongs August 27. Race was his first in a claimer and first since May 29. Trainer Craig Dollase brings him back in 18 days for this and Irish-bred is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #4 (Parable) - Almost put this $210,000 gelded son of "A.P. Indy" on top as he's been sharp in five of his last six starts. drops down in his second back off a 2 1/2 month layoff and has a pair of fast works heading into this attempt.
