Top pick: #5 (GOODTIMEHADBYALL) (5-2) - Veteran moves up a bit in class and goes an extra furlong after a near miss here going 7-furlongs on Feb. 14. Has back class, is in a hot barn (Jamie Ness), and gelding has won at this trip in the past.
2nd pick: #3 (Political Justice) (4-1) - Speedy sort drops down a tad after setting a fast pace and tiring to finish third here at this trip for a $35K tag Feb. 27. He should be involved from start-to-finish.
3rd pick: #2 (Stephen A) (5-1) - Lightly-raced, he moves up in class after a good looking win here at this trip facing weaker Feb. 13. Lightly raced and this colt is still getting better.
