Top pick: #7 (ARSON SQUAD) - Talented but fragile runner is stringing starts together for the first time since the fall of '08. Last out he won the "Skip Away" (G3) at Gulfstream in his thied (and best) effort since coming back from an eight month layoff in February. Has a nice local work and there appears to be enough speed signed on to help his one run style out. The top pick.
2nd pick: #4 (Cool Coal Man) - Very fast early and he loves this particular distance (6-4-1-0). Zito trained son of "Mineshaft" has a big "bullet" drill here on April 22 and he'll be very tough if left alone early.
3rd pick: #2 (Friesan Fire ) - Has some speed but not as much as "Coal", so he'll probably need to rate which he's done successfully in the past. Working fast and frequently for this his first race on this surface since he was favored in last year's "Derby" and was injured in that race.
