Top pick: #3 (CAPROCK KID) (4-1) - Nicely bred colt is working well locally for his first since March 28th at Gulfstream Park. Home bred by 'Sky Mesa' finished second that day racing at this level and distance. A career best overall and he gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #2 (Andalusite) (3-1) - Lightly-raced, he finished second of nine, beaten a length racing at this level and distance at Aqu. April 18th. It was his first start since late October and the figure earned matches that of 'Caprock Kid'. Stalker is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #4 (Tweet Kitten) (7-2) - Freshened up since Feb 21, he was competitive in a pair of starts at Gulfstream when last in action. Ramsey home bred by 'Kitten's Joy' is training well for trainer Chad Brown who is 10 for 28 at this meet.
4th pick: #6 (Honorable Duty) (5-2) - He's one of two entered by trainer Bill Mott and the pair race un-coupled. Colt ships in from Keeneland where he rallied strongly to miss by less than a length April 24th. Only his second start, it came with the addition of both Lasix and blinkers. Must be left in the mix.
