Top pick: #3 (ST SINCERE) (5-2) - Speedy gelding moves from turf to dirt for trainer Dave Jacobson after tiring while wide last out while pressing a fast pace. He meets a weak field and can break his maiden in this spot.
2nd pick: #5 (No Nukes) (3-1) - Gelding runs third back from a 10 1/2 month layoff and will be dropping to a new low, switching from grass to dirt, and shortening up in distance.
3rd pick: #4 (Silver Shot) (7-2) - Lightly raced grey gelding comes off a career best when he finished fourth of 11, beaten 4 1/2 lengths racing here at this tag & trip on the grass Sept. 25th. He should be involved every step.
4th pick: #7 (Woburn) (10-1) - Longtime maiden drops down a bit after finishing fifth of nine, beaten almost six lengths facing fellow New York-breds for a $20K tag on Sept. 14th. Stalker draws outside of the speed, and is a factor with his best.
