Top pick: #5 (GO RICHIE GO) - Longshot didn't seem to care for either surface at Del Mar, but this east coast import had some solid form at Gulfstream and Belmont earlier this year. Has a good chance from just off the pace at a very big price.
2nd pick: #2 (Lime Rock Revenge) - He was impressive winner over weaker at Fairplex on Sept. 14 and that made him two for three on real dirt. Speed/stalker broke his maiden herelast April and is a win candidate again this afternoon.
3rd pick: #3 (Chinese Praise) - Races first off a re-claim by trainer Pete Miller and he paid-up $4000 for him. Gelding has won two in a row since dropping down in price and three of his four lifetime scores have come on real dirt.
