Top pick: #1 (CATTARAUGUS) - Filly hasn't raced since debuting in an "off the turf" sprint contest at Saratoga on August 21st. Prepared for her return initially at Gulfstream, 3yo has a trio of sharp works since shipping north and she draws the rail. Take her for a mild "upset"
2nd pick: #3 (Grapefruit League) - Debuting daughter of "speed" stallion "Latent Heat" , is working fast on this strip, including a near bullet half-mile gate breeze a week ago. In the top barn of Bob Tiller and a major factor.
3rd pick: #2 (Rue de Jean) - Speedy 5yo mare has finished in three of five local starts at this distance and has done so in two straight at this meet since returning from a 10 month layoff in early April.
