Top pick: #1 (Entry of #1-ST SINCERE and 1a-CHIEF SCOUT) (6-5) - The entry from Dave Jacobson looks ver tough in this race as "St. Sincere" has good early speed and draws the rail, while "Chief Scout" runs first off a claim (27%) and has the trainer's main rider (Dave Cohen) aboard.
2nd pick: #7 (Papa Doc) (3-1) - Very speedy gelding is clearly better on the grass, but at this reduced level against a rather poor field, his abilty to break on top is a plus.
3rd pick: #8 (Go to the Net) (5-1) - Grinder runs second back off a 4 1/2 month layoff and has enough ability to pick off enough during the stretch run to get a minor award.
