Top pick: #6 (TRAVELIN MAN) - The probable favorite has been given a bit of a breather by trainer Todd Pletcher after an impressive maiden win early in the meet and a solid second-place finish in the Hutcheson S.(G2) to the talented Flashpoint who is competing in the Florida Derby (G1) later on the card. Working fast at Palm Meadows and he's the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #1 (Black N Beauty) - Price play in the exotics was essentially eased up after a poor start in the Hutcheson, but had proven a steady and reliable runner up to that point. Working well since and he can factor today at a nice price.
