Top pick: #7 (FAYOUM) - Speed/stalker ships in from Monmouth in sharp form and until recently this colt had been facing much tougher his whole career. In the barn of Steve Asmussen and he drops him to the local bottom ($7500) and names Dominguez. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #5 (Devilish Due) - He finished second here last out facing tougher in his first off a Gary Gullo claim. Drops under the purchase price today and the barn adds blinkers. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #3 (Run to Grand Ave.) - Sharp all summer since trainer Bruce Levine dropped him into claimers and this three-year-old fits at this tag and distance. Has a strong shot at the top spot.
