Top pick: #6 (TWOFIVEFIVESLEW) - Nice effort last out saw him finish second at this price and distance in his second start back off a 7-week freshening. Veteran loves this surface, is in a winning barn, and is the horse to beat with a repeat of his latest effort.
2nd pick: #1 (Boogiemanball) - Improving with each start since coming here July 1 and getting a trainer switch to Bart Baird. Seven-year-old rallied to finish second Aug. 5 at this price and trip and should be competitive again tonight from his inside post.
3rd pick: #9 (Duty Roster ) - Gelding did not break well last out, but put in a strong late rally to finish 3 lengths back of "Twofivefiveslew". Has more positional speed then he showed that day and is a win candidate with a clean start.
