Top pick: #2 (MODERN GENTLEMAN) - Gelding drops down in price and goes turf to dirt this afternoon. He's had a lot of chances (20) but has been competitive in most and meets a rather weak field. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #1 (Niccolo's Dancer) - He's lightly raced and has exchanged decisions with "Gentleman" in his last two starts. 5yo gelding has fine early speed, the rail, and comes off a career best when finishing 2nd here at this tag sprinting on Feb 20th. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #4 (San Giuseppe) - Another coming off a career topper, he rallied to finish a distant 2nd at this price and trip on Feb 12th. Grey gelding is by a fine sire: "Swiss Yodeler" and is a stretch threat.
