Top pick: #5 (CHEROKEE COUNTRY) - He's never run locally, but is razor sharp at present and in his latest Sept. 28 at Philadelphia Park, he handled a very good colt ("Biker Boy") who would possibly be the favorite here if entered. Stalker is the choice to win this G3 stakes.
2nd pick: #3 (Gold Trippi) - Very consistent and appears best at a "middle distance" which he'll be running at today. One-run type is two for three on this surface and is a late threat today.
