Top pick: #11 (HY KODIAK WARRIOR) (7-2) - Son of "Kodiak Kowboy" has run well in both starts and will be stretching-out to a distance (7-furlongs) that seems perfect for his late running style. Colt draws a fine outside post and is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #8 (Little Rocco) (15-1) - Price play just missed when debuting here on Aug. 10, but has not been as sharp in his last pair. However, he's in a top barn (Dale Romans), has been bet in all three appearances, and has been working very fast since his last race 37 days ago.
3rd pick: #10 (Desenhado) (4-1) - Debuting home-bred by "Tapit" has a series of quick local drill showing and trainer Jose Garoffalo wins at a solid 20% rate first out.
4th pick: #7 (Giant Cat) (7-2) - Son og "Giant's Causeway" just missed here at this level going a mile on the dirt Sept. 15, then ran evenly last out when trying the grass for the first time. Colt should factor in this spot.
