Top pick: #8 (SPIRIT UNBROKEN) - Veteran missed by a head last out at this price in his 3rd back off a long layoff and 2nd off a Jerry Caldwell claim. Loves this surface(17-5-3-0) and stalker draws the outside post. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #1 (Beat the Cheat) - Speed/stalker is another surface loving runner(10-3-2-1) and he has a bit of back class to call upon. Moves to the rail after winning from the 12 post last out and he's a big threat to the top pick.
3rd pick: #2 (A J's Cat) - Has some early speed and drops back into a claimer after pressing the pace and tiring in an Oklahoma-bred stakes here 12 days ago. His early foot makes him dangerous.
