Top pick: #7 (TEN ITEMS OR LESS) (5-2) - Gelding has shown good early speed in a pair of starts facing better and will drop into a claimer for the first time following a 7 week freshening. Gets a slight edge in a tough opener.
2nd pick: #6 (Two Comma Guy) (2-1) - He holds a recency edge on the top pick as he debuted 19 days ago at Keeneland. Colt took some money and held to finish third after chasing the pace. Trainer Mike Trombetta (24% second time out) drops him into a claimer and switches him from "poly" to dirt. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #1 (Concorde's Peace) (6-1) - One-run type has gone (8-0-3-3) and enters off a career best when finishing second on April 5th at Aqueduct. He draws the ground-saving rail and is a threat from off the pace.
4th pick: #4 (Brass Set) (4-1) - Debuting colt from the Kenneally barn (14% first out) has a solid series of works showing all at Belmont with the latest coming on the main track. Home-bred can factor if ready.
