(# 1) STEW'S STONE - Speed on the rail and he has been at his best when below the $10K claiming price like he is today. Has good numbers and fits snuggly here. Dangerous from on or just off the lead from start to finish.

(# 5) Talega Creek - Deep closer finished second in last over Keeneland's poly surface. Proven on conventional dirt it's hard to imagine him not running well here.

(# 4) El Salsero - Drops in half today for John Barger, and gelding has run well at this level this season.

(# 2) Risky Weather - Very consistent runner in and around this claiming price. Has enough speed to stay close and could impact down the lane.
