Top pick: #9 (STOURBRIDGE LION) (7-2) - Colt cost $560,000 as a 2-year-old in training and had some promise early in his career. Speedy son of "Speightstown" was an impressive winner here racing for a $25K tag on April 7th and was claimed that afternoon by trainer Ray Preciado. Lightly-raced, that win earned him his highest figure, and he's since come back with a bullet 5-furlong breeze April 28th. Gets a slight edge in a very competitive finale.

2nd pick: #5 (A Fleet Attitude) (9-2) - Lightly-raced and consistent (9-2-4-3), he missed by a "nose" here at this level on April 15th in his first start since late October. Race was his first off a private trainer change to John Servis and gelding has a pair of sharp works since. Blinkers go on and he's an obvious win candidate.

3rd pick: #6 (Distinctive Ink) (4-1) - Speedy grey gelding has gone 6-4-1-1 when racing on conventional dirt and is training very fast at Penn National for his first since a win there in late March. Four-year-old Pa.-bred should be involved from start-to-finish.

4th pick: #7 (Super Slam) (12-1) - Speed/stalker returns off of his third layoff and has some nice works showing. Longshot can factor at a big price but needs to step it up for anything more than a small slice.
