Top pick: #5 (HE AIN'T BLUFFING) (6-5) - Speedy and lightly raced, he was a very impressive maiden winner at this "flat" mile racing at Gulfstream for a $12.5K tag on March 31. Race was his first off a private trainer change to Michelle Nevin and this 5yo has been working fast since.

2nd pick: #4 (Gallant Breeze) (6-1) - He also was an easy maiden winner last out, and it came on this surface, at this distance April 28. Colt is well-bred ("Gone West") , in a good barn (Chris Englehart), and a win candidate.

3rd pick: #6 (Saturday Appeal) (8-1) - Stalker drops in class and moves in with "open" company for this assignment. He has some talent, gets blinkers back on after a four race absence, and he had a bullet three furlong breeze three days ago.

4th pick: #2 (Bugsy Losty) (8-1) - He's been freshened up since an even effort on Aqueduct's inner-surface facing tougher March 15. Race was his first since arriving from California and trainer Bruce Levine has now given him some time to adjust. Stretch threat.
