MONMOUTH PARK Race #7 (THE JERSEY DERBY)

August 1, 2010

Premium Pick

Top pick: #6 (FANTASTICO ROBERTO) - Lightly raced and talented this Irish-bred won his only two starts in Europe (both in Italy) and has shown a steadily improving pattern since coming to the states about a year ago. He looked the winner every step last out when winning the "Choice" stakes on this surface in the best effort of his career. Much improved since blinkers went on two back and this colt also has a flexible style. The top selection.

2nd pick: #7 (Audacity of Hope) - English-bred and raced he's kept some good company overseas and this son of "Red Ransom" will get blinkers on, race with lasix for the first time, and gets Ramon Dominguez for his North American debut. Contends today

3rd pick: #5 (Thunder Brew ) - He defeated the top pick two back in the "Lamplighter" when he got a perfect pace set-up in front of him but wasn't as fortunate last out as he never threatened after breaking slowly and the pace was "slow." Stretch threat.
