Top pick: #5 (TRUE PROPHET) - Finished a strong 2nd last out when his connections dropped him to this price for the first time. Can stalk the likely "fast" pace and go by turning for home.
2nd pick: #6 (Excessive Diamonds) - Speedy runner has only faced the starter once since August. He pressed the pace last out as the favorite and did not fold until deep-stretch. Returns today off another break (2 months) and should be a speed threat.
3rd pick: #1 (Silver Storm Day) - Draws the rail, has good tactical speed, and if he avoids a traffic jam heading into the turn, he can be a late factor.
