Top pick: #8 (LONGFOR THE CITY) (7-2) - He's racing first off a Dave Jacobson claim (a 31% winning angle) and moving back in with fellow New York breds. He missed by a 'nose' when facing 'open' $50K 3l foes going a mile May 21st. New barn brings him back quickly and this 5-year-old loves this deep surface 6-2-2-1.

2nd pick: #5 (Sea Raven) (5-2) - Consistent sort 8-2-2-2 finished second here at this level going 8.5-furlongs May 2nd. It was his first since March 14 and he should move forward off of it. $130K 4-year-old by 'Mineshaft' is dangerous.

3rd pick: #3 (Native Hero) (8-1) - Freshened up since early April, this 4-year-old had won two in a row before the break and was in career best shape. Fits at the level and his figures are fine if he can repeat them off the 7-week break.

4th pick: #6 (This Hard Land) (15-1) - No-speed veteran has slipped a bit over the past year. 'Long winded' type may grab a share at a big price if the pace is fast/and or contested.
