Top pick: #6 (THE ROOFER) - He's taken some serious money in several of his starts and is working fast locally for his first start since Aug. 22 at Saratoga. Gelding had a poor getaway that afternoon and ran evenly in grass sprint for a $50K tag. Pa.-bred finished third on this surface when debuting on April 12th and is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #8 (Magtime) - He showed some speed before tiring when debuting on the Mountaineer Park dirt Aug. 25. Working nicely since. He had a sharp half-mile breeze here on Sept. 29 and can be a major force at a square price if he runs back to that drill.
3rd pick: #1 (Anillo) - Price play has regressed in his last pair after being competitive in his first two starts. Home-bred by "Aragorn" will be dropping into a claimer, racing on a "poly" for the first time, and cutting back in distance. Can factor at expected long odds.
