Top pick: #1 (BUSTER'S CREW) - Has the best last race of these when he missed by just under a length racing here at this level. He raced close-up and rallied in the lane to just miss. Has the rail, good positional speed, and is the choice for the win.
2nd pick: #9 (Fat Jack) - Well-bet in his debut, he had some problems at the break and rallied to finish fourth of nine going 5.5 furlongs in the slop. Barnbrings him back quickly for this and stretches him out in distance.
3rd pick: #7 (Blood Prince) - He's showing some improvement and rallied from far back last out to finish 5th of 11, beaten 9 lengths. Race came off a seven week break and he gets blinkers on in this spot.
