Top pick: #4 (PREMIUM WINE) - Very consistent veteran almost never runs a bad race and ships up from Philly Park where he beat a good field Mar. 22 in a race just below this level. Nicely managed over the past year and he's won on this surface in the past. Seven-year-old can be placed either on or just off the lead and is the choice for the win.
2nd pick: #3 (Bambi Bound) - Very lightly raced 3-year-old faces a tough group of older horses but he does have excellent early speed, is in a good barn, and still has room for upside. Should be in this from start to finish.
