Top pick: #4 (ALFARABI) - Well-backed in his debut son of "Yes It's True" finished a strong second after being "bumped" heavily at the start. Training well since for a good barn (Eoin Harty), he's the horse to beat in start number two.
2nd pick: #7 (Lions Story) - Just like the top pick, this colt by "Wildcat Heir" was bet in his debut and also finished second. Good speed shown that day and he's also working sharply. Barn (Jerry Hollendorfer) is strong second time out (25%). He is on an equal par with the top pick.
3rd pick: #2 (Ivory Fudge) - He finished an even third in his debut after racing wide the whole race. Better post and a nice drill on the 27 can lead to a board finish.
