Top pick: #8 (LITTLE BAKER) (2-1) - Speedy sort pressed and weakened to finish third at this tag & trip Feb. 20th. It was his first off a Kirk Ziadie claim, and he gets him in much lighter today with an apprentice rider aboard.
2nd pick: #7 (D N A Approved) (3-1) - He enters in career best form and is trying this 3l condition for the first time. Colt was a winner here at this claiming priced and 6-furlong distance Feb. 14th to the clear the 2l level. Very dangerous with a repeat of that effort.
3rd pick: #3 (Bright Guy) (10-1) - He comes off an even effort when finishing 2 1/2 lengths back of 'Little Baker.' He ran between horses much of the way and can factor in this spot with a less stressful trip.
