Top pick: #1 (SHANKTOPOTAMUS) (7-2) - Veteran raced evenly here at this level going 6-furlongs April 19th. It was his first since Dec 10 and 7-year-old was claimed that afternoon by trainer Tony Pecoraro for $5000. New barn has won with 3 of 12 fresh off the claim and this speed/stalker draws the rail. A 9-time winner, he can take this with his best.

2nd pick: #3 (Road Agent) (5-2) - Speedy veteran is another racing first off a claim. He was taken for $7,500 by Sandra Conner for $7500 April 28th. She drops him a bit in class and this gelding will be racing at a new low in this spot. Dangerous on the front end.

3rd pick: #4 (P A Thunder) (4-1) - No-speed type has rallied to finish third in two of his last three. Latest saw him beaten just over 3-lengths after stumbling at the break. The faster the pace, the better his prospects.

4th pick: #7 (Dixie Notion) (5-1) - Stalker is dropping down to this $5000 claiming price for the first time. He raced both wide and evenly here facing tougher May 18th and can factor if able to avoid another wide journey.
