Top pick: #8 (HARDLY SPOKEN) (6-1) - Price play finished second here at this tag and distance April 8th and was claimed that afternoon by Ramon Preciado. Gelding showed good early speed before tiring facing a bit better on May 6th and Preciado will drop him back to the purchase price for this attempt.
2nd pick: #5 (Forgotten Vow) (5-2) - Well-bred colt is one of a pair entered by trainer "Lupe" Preciado and the two maidens race uncoupled. Son of "Broken Vow" comes off an even effort at this tag on may 5th and Preciado has Carmouche back aboard after a one race absence.
3rd pick: #3 (Rovin Man) (3-1) - The second of the Preciado pair, he's burned a lot of cash in his 12 starts, losing as the favorite in five of those attempts. He fits here and comes off his best overall since coming off a half-year's absence in early Feb.
4th pick: #1 (Imperial Bluegrazz) (3-1) - Lightly-raced gelding raced evenly here for a $40K tag on April 9th. Race was his first seven weeks and first off a positive trainer change to Tony Dutrow. He drops him down, 3-year-old draws the rail, and he's a threat from on, or just off the pace.
