Top pick: #1 (MANE MACHO) - He's gone winless this year but it's not for the lack of trying (13-0-4-3). Gelding by "Macho Uno" has failed to finish "in the money" only once in six attempts at this $5000 price tag. He draws the rail after having the outside slot in his last pair.
2nd pick: #5 (Ourland) - Trainer Mike Pino drops this runner and moves him from the turf to the dirt. Can compete today and he and the top pick have traded decisions in the recent past.
3rd pick: #4 (Bodyshots) - He finished a solid pace-chasing second two back at this level to a wire-to-wire winner then ran evenly last out, the same race where the top pick missed by a neck. Can run with these.
