Top pick: #1 (BONNISTAR) - He's part of a Genaro Garcia trainer entry and jockey Jesus Bracho is listed on both halves. This gelding just missed last out facing tougher as he put in s strong late rally that came up a head short. Not sure why they're dropping him down to race for $5000, but he's the horse to beat if he runs.
2nd pick: #1a (Three Tickets) - The second half of the Garcia entry has excellent early speed and draws a nice outside post to send from. Veteran was less than a length off of Bonnistar on Oct. 31 and is a big factor if he goes.
3rd pick: #8 (Disguise) - Stretches-out this evening after rallying to finish third last out at this price going 6 furlongs. Effort was his first in 3 1/2 months and two-turn contests are his speciality.
