Top pick: #6 (FRISKY MAGICIAN) (3-1) - Lightly raced 3yo has clearly improved since switching to the turf. He enters off a 'nose' loss here at this level and distance Aug. 14th. A career best overall, he gets a slight edge.

2nd pick: #7 (Wind Warning) (9-2) - Strong finisher rallied to just miss here at this distance racing for a $40K claiming price Aug. 5th. He was away slowly that afternoon and finished fastest while wide. Claimed that day by Mike Maker (22%), he's worked him twice since, moves him up in class, and has Castellano aboard.

3rd pick: #4 (Watch the Tie) (3-1) - Dangerous rival for the top two selections. He's been competitive in all three starts on the dirt and is racing on the grass for the first time. Stalker is working fast for his first since late May, and he's bred to enjoy the turf.

4th pick: #3 (Junger) (12-1) - Long time maiden has a bit of speed, but has lost ground on a consistent basis during the stretch run. May hold on for a minor award at a big price.

5th pick: #8 (Baby Snacks) (10-1) - Unraced since a poor effort when debuting on the dirt this past March, he's working sharply, and his new trainer (Gary Sciacca) moves him to the grass.
