Top pick: #7 (HITTIN THE NOTE) - New York-bred stakes runner takes a huge drop today in his first off a Bruce Brown claim. Races 3rd off a two month break and should get a hotly contested pace to rally into. The top pick.
2nd pick: #11 (Payout) - Recent maiden winnerr looked god doing it and lightly raced colt is well-spotted in his first facing winners. Probably has some more improvement in him and Dominguez climbs aboard for the first time. Contends today.
3rd pick: #1 (Idol Image) - Has good early speed, has the rail, and noted veteran speed rider Julio Pezua aloft. He'll try and win this early.
4th pick: #6 (Sound Chaser) - He's raced evenly in his lasr pair running for twice this tag and wasn't beaten much in either. Drops in half and is a "live" longshot in this spot.
