Top pick: #4 (DRYFLY) - Lightly raced, speedy, has a win on this surface at this distance, and is improving with each start. The top choice.
2nd pick: #10 (Mission Impazible) - Gulfstream shipper from the loaded Pletcher barn ran a big race sprinting in the slop in his seasonal debut to just miss. Has a nice local drill as he'll try a two-turn distance for the first time. He has enough speed to not let this outside post hurt his chances too much.
3rd pick: #9 (Conveyance) - Very talented west coast invader has yet to taste defeat and will try his luck on conventional dirt for the first time. Has a nice local drill and that should set him up for another big effort.
4th pick: #7 (Crider) - He finished an even fourth in the local "Smarty Jones" stakes checking-in five lengths behind "Dryfly". May get a piece of this in his 2nd over the track.
