Top pick: #1 (SOLLY'S MISCHIEF) (5-1) - Gelding chased and tired to finish fifth here at this level and distance May 4th. He's beaten tougher in the past, draws the rail, and has a solid shot from his rail post.
2nd pick: #5 (Neidermeyer) (3-1) - He was the winner last out in his first off a change to leading trainer Ramon Preciado. Race was at this piece tag and trip as he cleared the 2l condition. Another with back class and an obvious win candidate.
3rd pick: #4 (Bluegrass Demon) (4-1) - Veteran is stretching out in distance after finishing third here at this level going 6-furlongs May 4th. In shape, he fits on figures and is a stretch threat.
4th pick: #7 (Dean the Man) (5-2) - The morning line favorite, he's taking a big drop in class for the Patty Farro barn. Very consistent sort, he always has a good spot turning for home, but has a bit of hang in him. Despite that fact, at this reduced level he's dangerous at a short price.
