Top pick: #5 (KATZ MY SONG) (5) - Veteran rallied to win here at this tag and trip Jan. 18. It was his first off a Paul Kopaj claim and his best overall since returning from a four month layoff on Dec. 13. Strong finisher should get a fast and/or contested pace to close into and he's won on a wet track in the past.
2nd pick: #7 (Upon Reflection) (2-1) - The probable favorite, he just missed as the heavy favorite here at this price and distance on a sloppy track Jan. 11. Claimed that day by Gil Zerpa (35% off the claim), he brings him back in just under four weeks while adding blinkers. Obvious win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (Reggae Boy) (6-1) - Consistent sort has fine early speed and breaks just off the rail. In shape, he was just over two back of "Upon Reflection" on Jan. 11. Capable on "off" tracks, he should be involved from start-to-finish.
4th pick: #7 (Mybrotherjohnnya) (5-1) - He set a moderate pace before weakening to finish a distant second here going 7-furlongs for an $8000 claiming price on Jan. 16. It was his first in two months and he should move forward a bit off of it.
