Top pick: #6 (INMYFATHERSIMAGE) (2-1) - He runs off an eight week freshening a claim by Rudy Rodriguez for this $16K tag at Belmont Sept. 19. He's shown ability in the past, meets a weak field, and gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #3 (Muscles Marinara) (8-1) - He goes second off a 3 1/2 month break and goes turf to dirt for trainer Karl Grusmark. Fits and think he'll run well at a square price.
3rd pick: #5 (Bundler) (4-1) - Lightly-raced gelding finished a distant second at Belomnt last out and showed some early speed that afternoon.
4th pick: #9 (El Dreamer) (15-1) - Longtime maiden has done some of his best work on "off" going and is 8-0-2-2 at this distance. Can impact late at a big price.
5th pick: #1 (Sunnyinseabrook) (5-1) - He runs second off a two month break and is brought back quickly for this. Has the rail an is a stretch threat.
