Top pick: #5 (STUCK ON GO) - Lightly raced, well-bred, in a great barn (Chris Hartman) and this grey 5-year-old is working fast for his first start since finishing second here just over a year ago. Runs in a career soft spot and Hartman wins at a 20% rate off of long layoffs. The likely winner if ready.
2nd pick: #11 (Smart Reality) - Recent maiden winner did so in easy fashion in his second off a trainer change to Chris Richard and a 7 week break. Think he'll be competitive in his first facing winners.
3rd pick: #4 (Timbatavi) - Once classier type rallied to finish second last out when trainer Jon Arnett dropped him to this tag for the first time. Stretch threat again today.
4th pick: #10 (Rock the Harbor) - Longshot moves off the rail and runs first off a Dan McFarland claim (a 25% winning angle). Lightly raced, well-bred, and may be competitive at a huge price.
