Top pick: #4 (JAKESAM) - Price play gets some much needed class relief in this spot after competing in stakes races in six of his last seven starts. He was an easy winner in the one allowance he raced in to break up that string, and grey colt by "Smoke Glacken" has won here in the past. The top pick.
2nd pick: #1 (Warren's Knockout) - Lightly raced, improving, has the rail, is working fast, and was a winner on this surface last out. Contends again today.
3rd pick: #5 (American Wildcat) - Another price play, he has more career wins (3) than the rest of the field and is working sharply for his first start in two months. Loves synthetic surfaces (8-2-4-1) and can factor at a big price.
