Top pick: #7 (CYTHEREAN) (3-1) - Speed/stalker finished second here for a $12.5K tag on Feb. 16. Gelding had some traffic issues or he may have finished first. It was his best in almost two years and came fresh off a Hugh McMahon claim.
2nd pick: #2 (Street Invader) (5-1) - Very fast from the gate, he tired after setting the pace last out for 1/2 this tag. It was his first in almost two months and he may have needed the start. Claimed that day by Patty Farro (14% off the claim) she moves him up in price. Gelding has back class and is a threat on the front end.
3rd pick: #6 (Fullfaithandcredit) (7-2) - He chased the pace and weakened last out to finish 7-lengths back of "Cytherean." It was his first in almost four months and he may have needed the start. Fits with his best and is a threat with his best.
4th pick: #1 (Gringo Bay) (10-1) - No-speed type has been sharp in three straight and rallied to clear the 3l condition on Feb. 7. He ran wide and evenly in his latest facing tougher and is dropping down and breaking from the rail. Stretch threat.
