Top pick: #3 (CONTE) (5-2) - Gelding raced evenly after a stumbling start here facing tougher Sept. 20. He had just missed in his previous race for a $16K tag and that was a career best from a figure angle. He gets a slight edge over #2 "Derby Gold."

2nd pick: #2 (Derby Gold) (7-5) - The probable favorite, he's been sharp all year 12-1-5-4 and many have come at this level. Stalker ran third here last out and that field was considerably tougher than he faces today. A strong win candidate.

3rd pick: #6 (Myth Master) (6-1) - Speedy sort draws a nice post at this trip and in this small field he's dangerous with his best. Gelding stretches out a bit in distance and he's gone 3-1-1-1 at this 7-furlong journey in the past.

4th pick: #5 (Beau Who) (4-1) - Canadian-bred was an easy winner here in his first at Philly Park and first off a trainer change to Bob Mosco. Strong finisher tries every time and would benefit greatly if the pace is fast and/or contested.
