Top pick: #1 (BIG FINISH) (6-1) - Colt has shown sharp early speed in both starts facing tougher. He's tired in each during the stretch run, but is dropping in class and breaking from the rail. Has a good shot at a square price.

2nd pick: #5 (Autumn Blitz) (5-2) - The probable favorite, he ships from Sacramento where he missed by a 1/2 length in a small field (five). Son of the speedy 'Orientate' has finished second in both starts and is an obvious win candidate.

3rd pick: #4 (I'm Not Bullish) (3-1) - One of five making their debuts, grey colt has some sharp works on view, including a fine 5-furlong gate breeze Aug 20. The leading rider here (Raf Bejarano) is aboard and he's won with 10 of 41 (24%) over the past 20-months when riding for trainer Pete Eurton.

4th pick: #2 (Jimmy the Juice) (4-1) - Grey colt is by a good first out sire ('Speighstown') and he had a sharp half-mile gate breeze here Aug 20. He sold for $50,000 this past spring as a 2-year-old in training and is capable of impacting if he runs to his works.
