Top pick: #3 (ALARMIST) - He goes against the grain as he continues to run well with a special "bar" shoe on (has a damaged hoof) and has finished second in 6-of-8 starts racing on the dirt. Latest came on this surface when he set the pace and was run down late by the heavy favorite. He's worked twice since and is the top pick, but make sure you reverse your exactas with him.
2nd pick: #7 (Tycoon Cat) - Gelding did well to finish 5th of 12 last out sprinting for $15K and he was claimed that afternoon by Linda Rice. Four-year-old was left at the gate in that outing and Rice will stretch him out in distance and raise him in value. Can factor at a nice price.
3rd pick: #2 (Tall Tale Teller) - Heavily bet in two starts back in 2010, he ran well in both of those outings at Saratoga. Working well for his first start in 17 months and trainer Tom Bush reaches out to Dominguez. Win candidate
