Top pick: #2 (HANDS ON) - As consistent as they come, winning 11 times and finishing 2nd or 3rd 27 times in a 56 race career. Professional sprinter was re-claimed by his present trainer (Dan Smithwick) last fall and has been on a roll since. Repeat of any of his previous 5 starts this year would be good enough.
2nd pick: #1 (Belend) - Has the hedge and he's run run strongly in a pair of turf sprints since being claimed by Tom Amoss at the Fair Grounds late in their meet. Can save all the ground before launching a bid.
