(# 3) GOLDEN WEEKEND - Two excellent second-place finishes to begin his career. Well bet in both starts he finished second in last to a very highly thought of colt in "Grand Minstrel." Not a lot of visible speed signed on, so his up-close or on the lead style should be beneficial.

(# 5) Vacation - Scratched the other day at Belmont to await this spot. Son of "Dynaformer" has finished strongly in both starts so far for trainer Shug McGaughey, and the mile should be right up his alley.

(# 8) Spurrier - Good effort in debut run at Belmont in a 5.5-furlong sprint. Had a wide draw and finished deceptively well to wind up fourth. Pletcher is 25% with second timers and this colt should improve with the longer distance.

(# 6) Pure Devil - Nice finish in initial race at Belmont, saw him run a distant third to a good-looking colt in "Etched." Lasix is added for this try by trainer Richard Dutrow.
