Top pick: #2 (CEEBO'S HONOR) (7-2) - Gelding showed some speed in a pair of starts last fall and has been training above average for his first since Oct. 16th. Good small barn (Joe Davis) drops him to a new low for his comebacker, and 3-year-old meets a weak field.
2nd pick: #3 (Coabey) (5-2) - The fields most experienced runner ships back from Churchill where he showed little there at this level going a mile on May 18th. Owner/trainer Billy Blevins shortens him up in distance, and unless the debuting runners have ability he's a win candidate this afternoon.
3rd pick: #5 (Sea the Moon) (9-2) - One of a pair making their first starts and this gelding has a pair of back-to-back sharp works on view. Home-bred from Florida need not be anything special to factor against these.
4th pick: #6 (Dogwood Scott) (6-1) - He's also making his first appearance and is by a fine debut stallion "Value Plus." Originally prepared in Kentucky, grey colt has a pair of local drills on view.
