Top pick: #6 (AVANI FORCE) - Lightly raced, improving, in a good barn, and leading rider Pedroza is aboard. Well-bred and much the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #4 (Go Lourdes Go) - Has solid early speed and finished third here at this tag and distance Sept. 16. Win threat with a repeat of that effort.
3rd pick: #3 (Victory Stand) - Filly is working sharply for her first start since January and is in a good barn (Gary Mandella). Drops and can contend if ready.
