Top pick: #3 (NUCLEAR WAYNE) - Consistent colt by "Mineshaft" has finished close-up in four straight races at this level at Monmouth. In the barn of Steve Asmussen he catches a field that is weak for this condition and he can win this from just off the top.
2nd pick: #4 (My Golden Opinion) - Has the best speed and enters this in fine form. Claimed last out by Dave Jacobson from Rudy Rodriquez and if he survives the barn switch with his form intact he could win this.
