Top pick: #1 (LOOKAROUNDCORNERS) (7-2) - The probable slight favorite, he was a winner when debuting at this level and distance April 18th at Keeneland. Colt was disqualified and placed 10th for bumping several others during the stretch run. He has the rail and can take this with a clean trip.
2nd pick: #3 (Private Relations) (6-1) - Long time maiden has been gelded since a fourth-place finish April 18th at Aqueduct. Stalker finished a close up second on this course a year ago at this trip and is a threat at a square price.
3rd pick: #5 (Boone Station) (8-1) - Godolphin runner is stretching out to a mile after missing by a length here at this level going 6-furlongs April 29th. Nice effort, it was only his second overall and first on the turf. Contends today.
4th pick: #14 (Amigo) (8-1) - The field's most experienced maiden, he's gone 5-0-2-1 on the grass. He's finished second in two straight in Florida and makes his local debut off a positive trainer change to Michelle Nevin (26% with new arrivals). The faster the pace, the better his chances.
5th pick: #9 (Fire Away) (15-1) - Phipps runner has disappointed so far, but he's making back-to-back starts for the first time, and that can lead to a competitive effort at a very big price.
