Top pick: #5 (CROCKEFELLER) (5-1) - For the 2nd race in a row he appears to be the main speed, and that led to a gate-to-wire win here on April 1st racing for a $12.5K tag. Claimed that day by Ron Dandy, he brings him back with a slight rise in price and this is a nice spot.
2nd pick: #2 (Middle of the Night) (5-2) - He has the 2nd beat speed in this small field and enters this off a pair of close up finishes at this tag. He has back class, is in a winning barn, and Carmouche gets aboard for this attempt.
3rd pick: #4 (Awesome Arseno) (8-1) - He has plenty of back class and will be racing 2nd back from a 8 month vacation. Strong finisher needs a fast/and or contested pace to have any shot at the win.
4th pick: #3 (Blame the Jockey) (3-1) - Very consistent sort has gone (3-0-1-2) since moving up in price a bit and one run type can grab another share from off the pace.
