Top pick: #6 (CUVEE'S CARESS) - Looms a heavy favorite and the more than likely winner. Colt has finished second in his first pair vs. tougher. Drops, is in a top barn (Ken McPeek), and puts back-to-back starts together for the first time. The top pick.
2nd pick: #10 (Cerrador) - Hee's finished pace-chasing seconds in his last pair, both at this tag. Improving and he should be in this from start-to-finish.
3rd pick: #11 (Mr. Sammy G) - Mid-Atlantic shipper hasn't raced since Dec. 3, but has some ability and races today in a career soft spot. Nice recent drill and he could do well at a nice price.
4th pick: #4 (Waterford Bay) - One of a pair of debuting runners from the barn of Todd Pletcher and they'll race uncoupled. Son of "Cuvee" is working sharply and draws the stable's No. 1 jockey (John Velazquez).
