Top pick: #9 (INTREPID) - Drops in half, goes turf to dirt, and comes into this working sharply on the main track at Monmouth. One-run type should get a fast pace to rally into and he's the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #2 (Naughty You) - Also drops, goes turf to dirt, races off a two month break, and runs for Rudy Rodriguez for the first time (a 46% winning move). Contender.
3rd pick: #3 (Stones Throw) - Has been competitive in all his starts since dropping down in price and was especially sharp last out when he finished fourth racing for $16K. Pace here should be fast and he has a shot of running them down late.
