Top pick: #2 (QUICK GETAWAY) - He returned from a long layoff (10 months) and after a badly needed come-backer he's (4-1-3-0) since then with all his races coming at this $5000 price-tag. Speed/stalker just missed (a "head") in his latest and this is his race to lose.
2nd pick: #8 (Distant Point) - Drops to a career soft spot, goes off almost a two-month break, and stretches-out in distance for the always dangerous Contessa barn. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #6 (Mascot) - Competitive against much tougher on the turf his connections drop him to the bottom for his return to the dirt. He's (6-1-0-1)in main-track starts and that win was a long time ago. This field has a lot of bad horses, so his back class counts for something.
