Premium Pick

Top pick: #2 (RED N BLACK ATTACK) (3-1) - Speed/stalker drops in class and draws a much better post than he had in his latest. Lightly raced gelding tired that day facing tougher while breaking from the 11-post. Can take this with his best.

2nd pick: #7 (Cousin Ricky) (5-1) - He just missed here facing a bit weaker on May 2. It was his second back off a seven-week freshening, and gelding was claimed that afternoon for $12.5K by trainer Tim Yakteen. Stalker is nicely spotted, draws a fine post, and is a threat at a square price.

3rd pick: #6 (Prince of Paris) (10-1) - Colt broke his maiden here going a mile on May 9, and was sent in for almost a two month rest by trainer Mark Glatt. Cal-bred tired on the grass racing for a $40K tag on May 2 in his return and will drop in class, go turf to dirt, and shorten up a furlong.

4th pick: #8 (Papa's Paisley) (9-2) - He ships back from Golden Gate Fields where he tired on the "poly" surface facing tougher on May 25. Fla-bred has done his best racing on this strip (4-2-1-0), drops in class, and runs in a career soft spot.
