Top pick: #3 (And Tell Me Nolies) (8-1) - This horse has three first-place finishes in a row. After winning the Grade 1 Del Mar Debutante at 7-furlongs, And Tell Me Nolies was stretched out to this 1 1/16-mile distance and won the Chandelier Stakes despite having a little trouble getting out of the gate, winning by three quarter lengths. The 2-year-old daughter of Arrogate bested heavy 6-5 favorite Justique.
2nd pick: #7 (Chop Chop) (4-1) - Will the second time be the charm for Chop Chop? Jockey Joel Rosario made a frantic late push at the Grade 1 Alcibiades last month with Chop Chop on this same track but fell just short to Wonder Wheel. Chop Chop staged a three-wide rally and lost by a nose. Rosario gets another shot with a 2-year-old filly that has two first-place finishes and one second-place.
3rd pick: #5 (Wonder Wheel) (5-1) - Wonder Wheel will feel at home just four weeks after winning the Alcibiades, besting Chop Chop in a great stretch battle. That was also at Keeneland at the same 1 1/16-mile distance on dirt. Wonder Wheel broke loose from the field as the final turn approached but was fortunate to hang on.
