Top pick: #7 (CAPTAIN CORRIGAN) (5-2) - He races first off an Adam Kitchingham claim (21%) and lightly raced gelding has run well in his last pair. His latest, a career best, saw him track, bid while wide, and finish 2nd of 8. New barn brings him back quickly and raises him $10K in value.
2nd pick: #1 (Rio Hondo) (2-1) - He rallied to finish 2nd after a slow start when debuting here at this tag on March 3rd. Obvious contender, but he'll need to break cleanly from his rail post.
3rd pick: #3 (Soul Saver) (4-1) - Goes turf to dirt, drops in class, and is sent a bit farther, all in his 2nd following a Jim Kasparoff claim and a subsequent two month freshening. He's working fast for this and is in the win mix.
4th pick: #8 (Swiss Emperor) (5-1) - This is start #30 and he's at a tag & trip that he's been competitive at many times in the past. In the mix and this field isn't all that deep.
