Top pick: #9 (WISE STOP) - Much improved since a Rodriguez claim, this gelding has both speed and stalking talent and draws a nice outside post to do either from. He faced a tougher field last out at this level and can beat this "softer" crew.
2nd pick: #1 (Tell Me First) - Finger Lakes shipper comes here in shape, with some fine positional speed, and he draws the rail. He's won here in the past and is a threat at a nice price.
3rd pick: #4 (That's Rich) - Also trained by Rodriguez this colt was re-claimed by the trainer after he lost him for one race. Has good early speed and is a relatively "fresh" horse with only 6 starts this year.
