Top pick: #5 (EIGHTYFIVEINAFIFTY) - Working fast for his first start since his debut at Saratoga when he finished a pace-pressing third to future Grade 1 winner "Dublin". He faces a field of mostly untried runners and is the choice, but at a short price.
2nd pick: #3 (Avenging Spirit) - Debuting son of "Tapit" has many fast works on his tab and including several from the gate. Looks like a good colt and he mau come out winging.
3rd pick: #1a (Freshman Dorm) - Part of an entry he has the most experience of this group and last out finished second going a mile in late November on the main-track here. Works are fine, as is his barn (Kiaran McLaughlin). Late threat.
