Top pick: #9 (MIGHTY SCORE) - Colt drew the rail in his debut here on Opening Day and had the mis-fortune to break slowly. He raced fine once in stride and finished a distant fourth. Race looks to have had some talented runners, as the winner was impressive and the second finisher won here last Sunday. Colt has a big work since that debut run. The pick at a square price.
2nd pick: #4 (Just A Coincidence) - Logical contender and probable favorite returns from an early November layoff for trainer Nick Zito. Colt showed good speed in all four of his '08 starts. Contender.
3rd pick: #1 (Presto Change O) - Debuting runner by "Grand Slam" resides in a good barn (Jimmy Jerkens) and has been working sharply at the Palm Meadows training center for the past six weeks. Draws the rail for his debut and may come out running.
