Top pick: #6 (BIRD EMPIRE) - He had just a "brutal" trip last out in a sprint on March 6 and checked-in third that day. Working very fast since for trainer Wayne Lukas and we think he's the horse to beat.

2nd pick: #9 (Classic Eagle) - Expensive ($700,000) son of "Unbridled's Song" finished a solid pace-setting second last out at this level Feb. 27. Working steadily since he may need rate in this spot as there's other speed in the gate to his left. Contender.

3rd pick: #8 (Graysonia) - Gelding was off slowly last out in a sprint but still rallied for the place spot. Race was his first in 7 1/2 months and trainer Tim Ice brings him back quickly for this and stretches him out in distance.

4th pick: #4 (Mykindacandy) - Stretch-out sprinter shoud secure the rail and take them as far as he can. He ran just seven days ago and has been a heavily beaten favorite in his last pair. Must be caught.
