Top pick: #8 (SLADEN K) - Gelding by "Cactus Ridge" will be droppin into a career soft spot, shortening-up in distance, and moving back to the dirt after tiring facing tougher on the grass here Sep 14. Home-bred looks all set for his maiden win.
2nd pick: #6 (Primal Jones) - Bred and owned by the Asmussen family and trained by Steve, this colt by "Primal Storm" has a fine 5 furlong work from the gate here 11 days ago that suggests that he has speed and is ready to go.
3rd pick: #3 (Sink the Boat) - He raced wide and evenly here facing special weights three weeks ago in a much improved effort from his debut. Trainer Judy Pruitt drops him into a claimer for the first time and if he has any talent he'll show it in this spot.
