Top pick: #4 (REDEMPTION ROAD) - Son of "Scat Daddy" races for the first time since May 23rd and this colt has shown good early speed in all four starts when facing special weights. Spotted to win by trainer Jimmy Jerkens and he gives this 3-year-old a rider switch to the aggressive Junior Alvarado.
2nd pick: #6 (Revere) - Races first off a Bruce Levine claim and this gelding races for the high-profile Repole Stable. Taken for $40K, he races off a five week break for half that price, something that Levine specializes in. 3-year-old should be involved from gate to wire.
3rd pick: #1 (Love in the Rain) - Bet down to favoritism at Belmont May 31st racing for $50K, he tired badly after setting a fast and pressured pace. Has the rail, is working fine, and it's Dominguez riding for Rick Dutrow, a 33% winning angle over the past 19 months.
4th pick: #7 (Chief Gaga) - Another taking a big drop ($75,000 down to $20K) and trainer Steve Asmussen will also be cutting this son of "Indian Charlie" back in distance. Working fine and is dangerous.
