Top pick: #3 (KUGGERAND) - Gelding by "Johannesburg" was scheduled to debut on the turf but finished a rallying 6th of 12 when race was switched to the "sloppy" main-track. Has worked well since, gets to try the grass, and Dominguez climbs aboard.
2nd pick: #10 (Bishop of Nola) - His lone turf start was strong as he finished a solid 2nd at Saratoga to the talented "Shrimp Dancer". Stalker has enough speed to stay close through-out and is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #7 (Thunder Chief) - Improving and he just missed ( a "neck") last out in a race that was moved to the main-track. Son of "Thunder Gulch" is a threat to run them all down late.
