Top pick: #6 (FORTY TEARS) - He ran poorly last out facing state-bred special weights here going 7 furlongs on the turf eight days ago and veteran trainer Ed Barker brings him back quickly with some changes. Three-year-old will drop into a career soft spot, switch back to the dirt, and shorten-up a furlong. The top selection.
2nd pick: #5 (Well Built) - He had a tough outside post last out at Saratoga and was forced to race wide the entire race. Son of "Hook and Ladder" has been freshened-up for the past two months and he was competitive the only other time he ran at this price.
3rd pick: #8 (Robbie's Turn) - Has some early speed but colt has yet to better than third in 16 career outings. Could be a danger if he clears off without a "tussle."
