Top pick: #10 (PRINCE CHAMPAGNE) (7-2) - Lightly-raced 5-year-old has been competitive in three straight here at this level after coming off a pair of layoffs on May 3rd. He has more speed than most and is stretching back out a furlong after finishing 4th of 11, beaten 4 1/2 lengths going 7-furlongs June 18th.
2nd pick: #6 (Thunder Bill) (4-1) - Long time maiden has yet to finish better than third in 23 career starts, but has been competitive in four straight at this tag. One-run type must be considered a threat against this weak group.
3rd pick: #2 (Dead Man Walk) (4-1) - He was showing some signs of improvement before a "bobbling" start cost him all chance in his latest. Grey gelding has some closing kick and can factor today with an alert break.
4th pick: #4 (Hang On Angie) (8-1) - Longshot has improved a bit since stretching out around two turns and gelding may grab a piece of this at a big price with a late rally.
