Top pick: #12 (ROYALLY OUTFOXED) - He likes this surface (5-1-2-2) and coes back here from Oaklawn after a pair of very good efforts facing open winners for $40,000. Speed/stalker can be placed anywhere from this post and he's the top selection.
2nd pick: #11 (A J's Mountain) - Away for a half year, he's won both of his races since returning and brings fine speed to the contest. In a good barn (Mike Reavis) and a contender.
3rd pick: #1 (Windy City Cat) - Home-bred by "Include" won his debut and then raced evenly in a tough contest at Gulfstream. His return race here was poor but he has a sharp drill since and draws the rail.
4th pick: #10 (Umbani) - He raced wide at this level from a poor post on Feb. 12 in his first race in nine months and finished second last out in his best effort ever. Contender.
