Top pick: #1 (SURFSPUN) (7-2) - Recent maiden winner did so here at this distance on a sloppy surface on May 8th. Much improved lately, gelding by "Hard Spun" has a pair of half-mile breezes since that win and speed/stalker draws the rail.
2nd pick: #2 (Cool Cat Tale) (4-1) - Lightly-raced grey gelding was an easy gate-to-wire maiden winner here running for a $20K tag on May 30th. Claimed that day by trainer Randi Persaud, he brings him back in 13 days and moves him up in class.
3rd pick: #3 (Sideways Vision) (6-1) - He was entered and scratched recently as he returns from an April 18th layoff. New York-bred has talent, is working well, and is a threat with his best.
4th pick: #5 (Patty and Nooche) (3-1) - "Patty" showed nothing in a grass sprint here at this level on May 23rd. It was his first since April 3rd and his connections bring him back quickly and switch him back to the main track.
