Top pick: #3 (PRESTIDIGITATION) - Excellent barn (Wayne Catalano) brings this runner from Hawthorne in racing shape and gelding has been working fast on the local surface. All his races in straight claimers are solid and he can win this with a late run.
2nd pick: #7 (B B's Song) - He's a bit on the cheap side but brings good speed to the contest and will be dropping back in for a tag after facing starter-allowance foes in his latest. Threat from just off the top.
3rd pick: #2 (Art and Soul) - Dangerous barn (Pete Walder) has tyhis gelding training sharply on the local dirt for his first start since August 22. He has good positional speed and a lot of back class. Don't sell too short.
