Top pick: #1a (MAVEN) - Part of an Enrique Arroyo trained entry he'll be running today off a five-month break. Speed/stalker has four published drills and he races here in a career soft spot. The top selection.
2nd pick: #7 (Call Tiger) - Takes a big drop and moves from the turf to the dirt for the Ralph D'Allesandro barn. Has off track experience and has hit the board in both. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #9 (Gimmearoutine) - Another dropper and this veteran speed/stalker draws an outside post which will give his rider some options. He's three for seven on wet tracks and all came against tougher.
4th pick: #4 (Commissioner Chris) - Has enough closing ability to hit the tri if the speed were to back-up here, which is entirely possible if all go.
