Top pick: #6 (STANLEY G) - He had a whole years worth of trouble here a week ago racing in a $18K claimer. Veteran was steadied and blocked several times when attempting to rally during the stretch run and was beaten two lengths. Trainer Larry Rivelli brings him back on short notice and has him expertly spotted in this starter-allowance.
2nd pick: #5 (Denim) - He's raced well in all three starts since being claimd by Leonard Slager in early April. Gelding has a flexible running style, fits at this level, and is a serious looking challenger.
3rd pick: #1 (Invisible Star) - Strong finisher rallied to finish a distant 2nd to "Stanley" on April 14th, then had a poor start and a wide trip last out while managing to run 4th. Can be a fator with a trouble free trip.
