Top pick: #7 (AERIAL DANCER) (8-5) - The probable favorite, gelding rallied to miss by a "neck" here in his local debut after coming here from the So. California circuit. He's been competitive vs. better in the past and can take this with a trouble free journey.
2nd pick: #6 (Garnisheed Wages) (5-2) - Filly takes on the boys after rallying to finish second here at this level facing her own sex on Oct. 31st. Fits well here on figures, and daughter of "Scat Daddy" is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (Rock of Faith) (15-1) - Stretch out sprinter has good early speed and is racing second back from a 7-week break. This field doesn't have a lot of pace signed on, and he can be in this from start-to-finish at a very big price.
4th pick: #1 (Brother Wesley) (20-1) - Very lightly raced 5yo raced evenly here on Nov. 1st and was 9 1/2 lengths back of "Aerial Dancer" that afternoon. It was his first since early July, first on the turf, and first around two-turns. May grab a share at long odds.
