Top pick: #1 (BEHR FACT) - Dramatically improved since a trainer change to Ingrid Mason and a return to this surface, gelding is (5-2-1-1) on this all weather track and (11-1-0-0-) elsewhere. Lightly raced 4yr.old has the rail, the best early speed, and he's the top pick.
2nd pick: #6 (City Number) - Another who loves this surface (19-7-3-2) and trainer Hugh Robertson will drop him down into a career soft spot this afternoon. Has a big class edge oh these, races 3rd off a layoff, and he'd be no surprise in what looks like a two-horse race.
3rd pick: #9 (Awesome Brew) - Has some back class, races 3rd off a layoff, a bit of tactical speed, and he's the most likely to spoil the party of the top pair.
