Top pick: #4 (TICK TICK BOOM) - Excellent race over this track last out as she set/pressed the pace from the start and held gamely to finish a close-up third. Nice drill since for a barn (Pat Biancone) that's gotten off to a good start here. The top pick.
2nd pick: #7 (Electric Gold) - Firster by "Seeking the Gold" cost $425,000 at auction and is in a patient barn (Angel Penna Jr.) but one that can have debuting stock ready. Several of the works suggest that may be the case.
3rd pick: #6 (Vinda) - Daughter of "Vindication" finished third in her debut at the Meadowlands after a severe "bumping" incident early in the race. Barn (George Weaver) is off to a fine local start. Contender.
