Top pick: #8 (MY BOY COY) - Makes his second start for the high-energy Cody Autry barn. Had trouble at the start in that maiden-special, so the effort is best "tossed." Sharp work since and he'll drop into a claimer today.
2nd pick: #1 (Ax Me Nice) - Pressed the pace in his only outing, which was at Delaware Park against $50K foes. Barn (Doug O'Neill) is good second time out and they enlist P. Val for this contest.
3rd pick: #4 (Metro Man) - Debut runner by a fine win-early sire, "City Zip". In an excellent barn (Bret Calhoun) and colt has a trio of fast five-furlong drills on this surface.
