Top pick: #8 (FIVE TIMES AGAIN) - Gelding ships in from Kentucky Downs where he finished second last out going 7 furlongs on the Kentucky Downs turf on Sept. 12. Lightly-raced 3-year-old finished second on the Ellis Park dirt July 28th and a repeat of that effort takes this.
2nd pick: #9 (Afleet Amore) - Colt raced close up and tired in his local debut just nine days ago. This is a very weak field for this condition and this 4-year-old can factor this evening.
3rd pick: #1 (In Daniel's Boots) - Lightly-raced gelding has some speed, draws the rail, and comes into this off a pair of good local tries. Has the rail and should be involved tonight from start to finish.
