Top pick: #8 (MAXWELL NOEL) - Not many $120,000 colts racing around here but this nicely-bred runner showed just enough in his debut to make him the choice for the win with any move forward. Excellent barn (Kellyn Gorder) has him all set for his graduation.
2nd pick: #7 (Rahvine's Song ) - Colt ships in from Presque Isle to race on real dirt for the first time. Lasix is added and he races first time for a great local barn (Bill Martin). Win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (Textime) - He showed a little late run in his debut here July 18 and will get the addition of lasix this evening from a good small barn (Sue Radulski). Exotics factor.
