Top pick: #7 (SMART MANEUVER) - Son of "Smart Strike" has finished second in his first two starts, both in Florida, one each at Tampa and Gulfstream. A repeat of either "figure" should win this and he's in a barn (Chris Clement) that wins a lot of grass races.
2nd pick: #9 (Atlantic Treasure) - Colt has raced well in both his starts separated by 10 months. Son of "Stormy Atlantic" ran well at Atlantic City April 22 and will be making back-to-back starts for the first time.
3rd pick: #3 (Yankee Scholar) - Debuting colt is from the barn of Todd Pletcher, is by a good win-early sire: "Smarty Jones", and has some sharp works showing. Can factor today.
4th pick: #2 (Inaugration) - Debuts for a very patient barn (Jonathan Sheppard) and gelding by "Victory Gallop" has a nice a.m. move on May 15. May do well at a square price.
