Top pick: #6 (SAINT HONOREE) - He showed much improved speed last out going a mile here on Sept. 10. He was sent hard from his inside post, battled through fast fractions and couldn't get off the rail until the 3/8ths pole. He held well to finish third to "Takes the Gold" who came back to run fourth here on Saturday in the G1 Champagne. Moves off the rail and is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #4 (Raconteur) - Son of "A.P. Indy" finished a distant second at Saratoga going 9 furlongs around two-turns on Sept. 2 and has a bullet work on the training track there on Sept. 26. Factors today.
