Premium Pick

Top pick: #7 (TWEEBSTER) - $300,000 son of "Tapit" raced evenly in his debut sprinting on August 1. The Baffert barn sends him to the turf and around two-turns in start No. 2. Colt has a pair of sharp drills since and he's the horse to beat in a talented looking field.

2nd pick: #5 (Alfarabi) - Colt has raced well in both his starts and his sire ("Yes It's True") gets some good grass runners. Trainer Eoin Harty moves him to the turf and Gomez climbs aboard. Win candidate.

3rd pick: #6 (Wings Of Sound) - Like the top pair, he's run well in his starts on the "Poly" and moves to the grass. He's by "Vindication" and many of his runners can turf. Player.

4th pick: #2 (Exploration) - Nicely-bred colt ("Seeking the Gold") is working sharp and his trainer (Richard Mandella) has been hot at this meet (21-6-2-3). Presence of jockey Nakatani is duly noted.
