Top pick: #3 (DEVILS AFLEET) (9-2) - Price play is a bit "long in the tooth" (9-years-old), but enters in good form and last out he had a very wide trip and was only beaten 2 1/2 lengths. He'd finished second in his previous start and draws a much better post than last out.

2nd pick: #8 (Wowie Maui) (2-1) - Veteran speedball has a back class edge on these and is working very fast locally for his first since late Oct. He's done some good work off of layoffs in the past and is a big win threat.

3rd pick: #1 (Is It Tuesday Yet) (3-1) - Another 9-year-old, he's working nicely here for his first since July 11th at Finger lakes. He's done well here in the past (7-1-3-1) and is 5-2-1-2 at this 4.5-furlong distance. Dangerous if ready.

4th pick: #6 (Warren's Blvd) (4-1) - "Warren" enters off a near miss here at this level going 5-furlongs on Dec. 22. The race was his best overall since last June and he should get a fast and/or contested pace to close into.
