Top pick: #1 (LITTLEBROWNROAD) - Gelding takes a big drop today after being out-paced last out in a state-bred allowance. Stretch runner has raced well in all his starts for a tag and races today at the bottom price here ($4000) for the first time. The top selection.
2nd pick: #6 (Storm This) - Has some early speed and held on well last out in his second back off a seven-week break. Can be a pace factor for sure, and in a race without a lot of speed he could last a long time on the front-end.
3rd pick: #8 (Mr. Palatine) - Speed/stalker raced evenly last out at this level in his first back off a six-month break. Can land a slice if he moves forward in his second back.
4th pick: #10 (Lambada) - Has the best early speed, runs third off a half-year's break and second off a Paul Lewellyn claim. Threat on the front-end.
