Top pick: #7 (ANTARIAN) - Well-bred gelding chased, bid, and tired slightly last out as the heavy favorite in a race at this level 16 days ago. Effort was his first back off a three month break and he can win this with just a bit of improvement in his second back.
2nd pick: #5 (Gather In Silence) - Speedy and lightly raced 3-year-old finished a distant second here at this level a month ago in his first start back off a 8 month layoff. He's worked three times since and looks set for his best in this spot.
3rd pick: #3 (Vindicate It) - Has some speed and last out finished second defeating "Antarian" in the process. Race was the best in his 7 race career and he can contend again today if he repeats it.
