Top pick: #6 (PROPER'S ACE) - Lightly-raced, Arkansas-bred comes off the best start of his career when he finished third here at this tag going 5.5 furlongs June 2nd. He showed excellent early speed and hung on gamely all the way. In the barn of Bill Martin and stalker draws outside of the speed.
2nd pick: #4 (Marginalsaint) - He's finished second in both local starts since coming here from Tampa Bay and and getting a two month freshening. There's lots of potential pace for him to rally into and he's a stretch threat in this spot.
3rd pick: #1 (Fearless Roman) - The main speed and he draws the rail. Last out he set the pace in the same contest as "Saint" and held until mid-stretch when he tired to finish third, but only 1 1/2 lengths back of that rival. His early foot makes him dangerous.
