Top pick: #1 (KATSKILL BAY) - He finished second facing tougher March 27th, but ran poorly last out at the same level. He's worked fast twice since and trainer Rick Dutrow drops him all the way down to the bottom. Stalker has won here before and he draws the rail. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #3 (King Bo Bo ) - Speed/stalker likes the surface (8-2-0-3) and has been freshened-up for the past six weeks by trainer Rudy Rodriguez. Working fast for this and he's a win candidate.
3rd pick: #7 (Digger Karakorum) - Very consistent sort (18-5-4-2), has plenty of back class, fine early speed, a good outside post, and the level and distance are right. Five-year-old should be in this from start-to-finish.
