Top pick: #4 (BARON SLEW) - Gelding will stretch-out in distance off a solid second-place finish at this price here 15 days ago and that made it four good efforts in a row since dropping into claimers. His latest came off a 75 day break and he's much the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #9 (Sheriff Bullock) - Tampa shipper races for the first time since March 6th, and for the first tme on a synthetic surface. Once you get beyond the top choice, this field is very weak and this lightly raced gelding can contend in the same race exotics.
3rd pick: #3 (Illusive Heart) - Lightly-raced gelding hasn't shown a thing in three starts but is working fast and races today off almost a year's layoff and a trainer change to Steve Margolis (19% with new stock).
