Top pick: #6 (FROZEN FOUR) (2-1) - The probable favorite, lightly-raced gelding has speed/stalking ability and has been competitive in both starts since dropping down to this $10K tag. Three-year-old draws a nice post at this trip and has the other pace to his inside.
2nd pick: #5 (Cat N West) (6-1) - Price play had no chance last out after breaking from an outside post going 9 furlongs on a very sloppy surface. In his previous race, he ran a career best and gelding drops down to a new low and shortens up in distance.
3rd pick: #4 (Smart Owner) (9-2) - Drops to a new low, runs third off a 5 1/2 month layoff, goes turf-to-dirt and shortens up in distance. With all of those factors, he should bring whatever he has to the table in this contest.
4th pick: #1 (Imaginaryweekend) (5-1) - Four-year-old runs third back off an eight month layoff and he finished an even third last out at this tag in a positive effort. He draws the tricky rail and needs a "smart" ride.
