TOP PICK #2 CAPO D'ORO 3yo daughter of Capote was not at her best in her first two starts here but looked strong last out coming back from a 7 week freshening. She was dropped into a claimer for the first time by Gerald Bennett and scored nicely over a modest field, recording her career best figure. This spot is not much tougher and she is the type of lightly raced 3yo that can move up the ladder. She has the ideal pressing style for this course and will retain Terry Houghton.

Horses for Exacta or Trifecta Wagering: 4 NEPPY'S WAY 9/2 Claimed two back by Merrill Scherer and immediately wired a weak field of maidens. Her pace and speed figures give her a big shot at a repeat win with Martinez returning.

5 HONEYMOONING 5/2 Bounced back from a dull effort to finish a distant 3rd in a similar spot. Will need more to win it but is headed in the right direction and must be considered.
