Premium Pick

Top pick: #3 (VIOLENCE) (9-5) - Highly anticipated 3-year-old debut for this undefeated (3-for-3) son of "Medaglia d'Oro" and trainer Todd Pletcher has him training fast at Palm Meadows. He's won twice around two-turns, one on dirt and the other on "poly." He'll need his best as this field is "deep."

2nd pick: #8 (Speak Logistics) (12-1) - He ships back from Tampa where he was making a strong move when forced to "check" in the recent "Sam Davis" stakes(G3). He's won around two-turns twice and without the trouble last out he may also have won that one. Price play.

3rd pick: #7 (Sky Captain) (10-1) - He improved a lot here when finishing second here facing weaker on Jan. 26 in his second off a 5 1/2 month layoff. In a top barn (Mark Casse) and this colt will be a big price.

4th pick: #4 (Majestic Hussar) (6-1) - He's really come a long ways since returning from a 3 1/2 month break in Dec. He owns the field's highest last race "figure" and this colt has alot of speed.

5th pick: #1 (Orb) (12-1) - Strong finisher will have no problem with this 9-furlong distance and he's won two in a row for "Shug" McGaughey. The faster the pace, the better his chances.
