Premium Pick

Top pick: #3 (CURRENT DESIGN) - Son of top sire "Tiznow" missed by a neck at Saratoga racing on the grass for a $25k tag on Aug. 23. Claimed that day by Jamie Ness (40% off the claim), he brings him back six weeks later at the purchase price and moves him to the main track, if as expected this contest is switched to the dirt.

2nd pick: #9 (Santonia d'Oro) - He finished a distant second here at this level and distance in a switched contest on Sept. 19. Solid effort to a "much the best" heavy favorite, and a repeat of it makes him a win candidate.

3rd pick: #11 (Life's A Roar) - Lightly-raced and improving, he comes off a near miss at Monmouth on Aug. 26 racing on the grass in what was a career best. Dominguez is aboard and grey gelding can factor if he brings his grass form with him.
