Top pick: #1 (JACK O LYN) - He has the best last race of those that have raced when he missed by a nose here at 46-1 on October 10th, running at this price. Gelding has the rail, a fine work on the Oct. 20, and he's the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #2 (Arathorn) - Debuting colt by "Aragorn" has a long work-tab showing and they've all come on this surface. Capable barn (Janet Armstrong) has Pat Valenzuela aboard and he wins at a 26% rate when riding for the trainer.
3rd pick: #4 (Officer Bavetta) - He showed nothing in his debut, but will gets blinkers added today and he has a bullet, 3-furlong gate drill four days ago. "Live" longshot.
