Top pick: #2 (BRENDAN G) (9-2) - Gelding has finished second in all four of his starts. Speed/stalker ships in shape from Penn National, has the rail, and will be tough to beat if he brings his form with him.
2nd pick: #6 (Mack Miller) (7-2) - Colt finished second last out after setting the pace in what was his first ever in a claimer. In the Pletcher barn and son of "Yes It's True" is an obvious win candidate.
3rd pick: #4 (Jackson N Lorimer) (4-1) - Freshened up since late August, trainer Dom Schettino has him working steadily and will drop him into a claimer and adds blinkers. Gelding by "Afleet Alex" showed good early speed in his debut and took some betting action.
4th pick: #3 (Qui C;est Moi) (8-1) - From the same barn as "Brendan" (John Morrison) and the pair of maidens race uncoupled. Colt tired in his debut at Laurel in late Oct. and will be dropping down for this attempt.
