Top pick: #2 (BAJA BOY ) - Very lightly raced gelding by "Friend's Lake" was an easy winner here at this price and distane Oct.6th as he cleared the previous condition (2l). Has enough speed to stay close early and run them down late with a clear journey in this large field.
2nd pick: #7 (Johhnie's Breeze) - Drops down to $5K for the first time and he's run well facing tougher on this surface in the past. Races for a good trainer (Jim DiVito) and this runner is set for a big effort in his 2nd start back off a 4 month layoff.
3rd pick: #8 (Seeking the Honor) - Drops down to this $5000 price for the first time and he rauns in a 3rd off a layoff situation ( often a horsese best). Has plenty of speed and is a threat on the front-end.
