Top pick: #10 (LOCHTE) (3-1) - He's been sharp in all of his grass races (4-0-2-2) and last out missed by a "nose" here in an switched contest on Nov. 11. Race was a career best and came in his first for trainer Marc Vitali following a private sale. He's worked fast twice since and speed/stalker is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #5 (Market Outlook) (5-1) - Son of "Lemon Drop Kid" is working nicely for his first since debuting on this course Feb. 23. Trainer Chad Brown (30% off of long layoffs) adds blinkers (26%), and this colt is a win threat if ready.
3rd pick: #4 (Armature) (5-1) - He has a strong closing kick and comes into this off a pair of "troubled" starts in New York. He finished close up in both and would benefit the most by a fast and/or contested pace.
4th pick: #3 (Siete C) (3-1) - In the Pletcher barn, colt by "Unbridled's Song" has some early speed and will be trying the grass for the first time. Working well and can factor if he takes to the new footing.
