Top pick: #5 (GLOBAL POSITIONING) (3-1) - Broman home bred enters off a career best here May 9th. Racing at this level going 6.5-furlongs, he chased a quick pace from his rail post and held to finish second in a large field (12). Colt by 'Malibu Moon' has gone 5-1-3-1 facing fellow New York breds and is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #9 (Gran the Man) (6-1) - Many thought he was an up and comer last year when he broke his maiden here in late June. After a sub par start in a follow up race at Saratoga, he was sent in for a 9 1/2 month layoff. Returns today off some impressive works at Fair Hill and can factor at a square price if ready.
3rd pick: #7 (Disco Partner) (4-1) - Lightly-raced, he's gone 3-1-1-1 overall and in his last pair has placed in stakes. One-run type is racing with blinkers on in his second back off a four month break. In the mix.
4th pick: #3 (New York Chrome) (7-2) - He looked sharp when breaking his maiden here May 3rd going 7-furlongs. He had a perfect trip against a weak field and will be facing a much tougher group from a tough post.
