Top pick: #1 (EAST SIDE CHARLEY) - Daughter of "Mr. Greeley" ran well here last year in three appearances and showed excellent early speed in each. Following a 4th place finish on Sep 11th, trainer Kelly Breen sent her in for a hal-year's vacation and she's raced evenly in a pair of return outings. 3yo had a poor break at Aqueduct March 7th, then raced evenly after not getting an alert start last out at Philly Park. Drops in half today, has the rail, and she can take this crew "all the way".
2nd pick: #8 (More Than Crafty) - Filly by "More Than Ready" has spent her entire career in Florida until today and she's been competitive in half of her 10 starts. Claimed 6 weeks ago by trainer Scott Volk for $12.5K, 3yo has a trio of local drills and she's a threat from off the pace.
