Top pick: #2 (N F'S DESTINY) (4-1) - He's improved noticeably since being claimed by Rudy Rodriguez in late Dec. Veteran speed stalker just missed here nine days ago and that ran his local record to 9-4-2-1. The rail is his for the taking and 6-year-old gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #4 (Classic Salsa) (7-2) - Speedy colt was reclaimed last fall by Dave Jacobson after losing him for one race. He's gone 4-3-1-0 since then and won a first-level allowance here on Feb. 7. In shape and should be involved from start-to-finish.
3rd pick: #3 (Dukati) (3-1) - Philadelphia Park invader is in top shape and enters off an impressive wire-to-wire win there in an entry-level allowance on Feb. 14. He earned a career best figure that day and it represents the highest that any of these veteran sprinters has ever achieved. A major threat if he brings that form with him
4th pick: #7 (Cho Time) (8-1) - Maryland invader has gone 13-4-4-4 since the beginning of 2014. One-run type is in career best form and had a bullet 5-furlong breeze on March 10th. Strong finisher will get a quick pace to rally into and will be a square price.
5th pick: #8 (Put It Forward) (10-1) - Gulfstream shipper is moving from turf to dirt and shortening up in distance. He comes here in form and may grab a piece of this at long odds.
