Top pick: #6 (ZIP THE BAG) (9-2) - He's one of two entered by trainer Jeff Metz, and the pair race uncoupled. Gelding ships from Fresno where he chased, bid, and leveled off on Oct. 5th. He gets the call in a competitive contest.

2nd pick: #3 (Danger Ranger) (7-2) - The second of the Metz pair, he comes in from Emerald Downs where he checked-in fourth of eight in a low-level starter-allowance on Sept. 29th. Fits, and stalker is a win candidate.

3rd pick: #1 (Respuesta Solida) (7-2) - Gelding was an impressive winner here racing for a $6250 tag on Oct. 5th to clear the 2l condition. Nice effort, and 4yo proved this past spring that he's capable of stringing strong starts together.

4th pick: #5 (Greeley's Legend) (3-1) - Speedy sort set a quick & pressured pace here, and held to finish third facing tougher on Oct. 7th. Well-bred, in a good barn (Dan McFarland), and gelding should be involved from start-to-finish.
