Top pick: #3 (BRAHMS DYNASTY) - Just missed last out after making a sustained wide run to reach the front, only to lose the race right on the wire. He lost enough ground to win the race by 3-4 lengths. Wins this with a "clean" trip.
2nd pick: #2 (Global Pictures) - Has no speed and broke poorly last - a lethal combination. In his previous pair he rallied from far back to finish second. Needs some pace help for more than a minor award.
3rd pick: #11 (Wager) - Speedy runner draws a poor post (11), so he'll have to be sent hard in an attempt to clear early. Not an impossible task in this weak field.
