Premium Pick

Top pick: #3 (ARMSTRONG MILL) - Lightly raced gelding by Dynaformer has better tactical speed than most entered and in this 10 furlong contest that's important. The turf course here at this time ( barring any rain) is as hard as it ever gets with the times looking like a speedway. That affords deep closers little chance unless the pace is fast/contested. The horse to beat.

2nd pick: #5 (Conservative) - Also has some tactical and can produce a long grinding drive which may be necessary in here. Win candidate.

3rd pick: #1 (Uncle Indy) - He's always been a solid runner and fits at thie level and distance. Last out he finished a fast-closin 3rd at this level in a shoretr race. Stretch threat.

4th pick: #2 (Midnite Silver ) - Very deep closer can "run all day" but would need a fast/contested pace and then have to out-kick others that had "first jump" on him. Difficult but not impossible.
