(# 3) Loveton - Trainer Richard Small drops son of Our Emblem into maiden claimer for the first time and also sends him around two turns in fourth lifetime start. He has run the mile distance before, but that was in one turn mile at Laurel. Sprinted in slop in first try off of five month layoff and didn't show much in that race. Small yet historically better with distance running stock and is four for his last nine when sending horses into maiden claiming events.

(# 5) Starwick - Makes third start for sharp outfit of Ralph Nicks. First start was over Polytrack at Keeneland when in for $50,000 at tough debut distance of seven furlongs. Made wide bid before leveling off. Sent long on turf in next against special weights. Drops today like our top pick stretches out on dirt and has a good drill leading into this. The horse to beat.

(#'s 1 & 6) Solitary Al and Lm.Drp.High - For small exacta savers.

The Plays: Wager $10.00 win and place on # 3.
$4.00 exacta boxes: 1-3, 3-5 and 3-6.
Total wager = $44.00.
