Top pick: #3 (FRISKY MOMENT) - Speedy gelding broke his maiden last out at Del Mar and was claimed that day by Brian Koriner for $40K. Race was only 17 days ago and he's nicely drawn in this $100K stakes. Can upset the presumed favorite (#8 Unhitchthetrailor).
2nd pick: #8 (Unhitchthetrailor) - The probable favorite has been competitive in all five outings and has finished close-up in a pair of stakes at Del mar. Faces a weak field today and he'd be no surprise.
3rd pick: #6 (Tio Vic) - He won his debut at Golden Gate in late May and finished an even fourth there Sept. 2 in his first off a layoff and first facing winners. In the Hollendorfer barn and colt has trained nicely on the real dirt at Pleasanton.
