Top pick: #1 (DARK CHEETAH) - Veteran tired at Aqueduct on October 28 racing for $12,500. Effort was better than it looked as he had the outside post (10) and the track was sloppy. He stayed within range and held his ground late. Trainer Bruce Levine drops him to the bottom this afternoon and he draws the rail. The top pick.
2nd pick: #4 (The Yes Man) - He's been freshened-up a bit (seven weeks) since a very good-looking win at Monmouth in late September. Speed/stalker is a win candidate if he repeats that effort.
3rd pick: #7 (Uncledannysdbrother) - One time much classier type chased and tired from a wide post last out at this price. Effort came in his second back off a freshening and he can challenge today with a slight move forward.
