Top pick: #4 (WESTERN FABLE) - Showed some ability at two and with normal growth he should come back a bigger and better animal. In a good barn (Carlos Martin) and three-year-old doesn't face a whole lot of talent in here. The pick to win his seasonal bow.
2nd pick: #8 (Key Victory) - Has a turf win and has already proven competitive at this level. Stalker should be in the clear with every shot turning for home.
3rd pick: #7 (Kutais) - Improving and lightly raced. He broke his maiden last out in "handy" style in a one-mile "off the turf" event. Lone turf start last August came in his debut and he did well. Barn (Rodrigo Ubillo) has been on a two week roll.
