Top pick: #7 (KATSKILL BAY) - Five-year-old gelding finished second at this level on March 17 in his first race back off a 46-day break and trainer Rick Dutrow brings him back in three weeks for this attempt and this stalker draws a good post and there's lots of speed for him to chase. The top selection.
2nd pick: #9 (Pete's Parley) - Highly competitive colt by "Freud" (8-2-1-3) has excellent early speed and is still improving at this point. Working fast at Belmont for his first race since March 4 and he draws a great post at this 6.5 furlong trip. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #6 (Fiery Footwork) - Speed/stalker was involved from start-to-finish last out and was only a neck behind Katskill Bay at the finish. He's only one of two entered that has won on this surface before and he can contend again this afternoon.
