Top pick: #5 (WRITINGONTHEWALL ) - Speed/stalker ships down from New York where he was in career best shape in lat May before going in for a seven week freshening. Working fast and he's the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #8 (Marvelous Chester) - In the best shape of his life and he's run three straight strong efforts in a row, all on this surface. Speed/stalker is a threat again this afternoon.
3rd pick: #4 (Pretty Boy Freud ) - He finished a close-up third last out at this conditionat Belmont in his first ever on the grass. Gomez is aloft and this New York-bred is an exotics factor this afternon.
4th pick: #3 (Double Eagle) - He steps way up in class after a pair of impressive wins facing weaker. Lightly raced and still improving, he's too sharp to ignore.
