Top pick: #3 (TAWAARED) - Logical selection and probable favorite has run well in all three of his grass races and brings the best last "figure" to the table. Son of "Unbridled's Song" looks tough to beat in this spot.

2nd pick: #1 (Zimmer) - Has the hedge and some positional speed. Son of "Empire Maker" finished second at Churchill in his only previous grass attempt. Contender.

3rd pick: #2 (War Hoot) - Firster by "War Chant" cost $220,000 and has been training sharply at Saratoga since May. Good barn (Chad Brown) has him ready and he names his go-to rider Jose Lezcano today. Player first out.
