Top pick: #1 (ROATAN) (4-1) - Lightly-raced and speedy, gelding pressed a quick pace and weakened late to finish fourth here at this tag on a sloppy surface on June 25th. It was his first since early Sept. and a positive effort off the long layoff. The horse to beat.

2nd pick: #9 (Kenzie's Heat) (9-2) - Long time maiden has finished fourth in two straight here at this level and one-run type draws well with a lot of speed to his left in the gate.

3rd pick: #12 (Alta's Hippie Dude) (7-2) - Gelding enters off a career best figure when he finished a close up second here at this level and distance on June 27th. A repeat of that effort makes him a win threat.

4th pick: #2 (Our Best) (12-1) - He improved last out to finish a pace-setting fourth in what was his second outing. This field drew a bit tough and he needs to improve some more for any shot at the win end.
