Top pick: #9 (SHOW YA LUV) (5-2) - Good barn (Keith Lebarron) drops him back down, and this Pa-bred has beaten tougher in the past. Speed/stalker draws a nice outside post at this distance and is the day's "Best Bet."
2nd pick: #1 (Sir Allison) (7-2) - California import won his local debut on Sept. 22nd racing for a $16K tag, then tired last out racing for a $20K tag. Drops, has the rail, and he should be involved every step.
3rd pick: #7 (R Blackjack ) (8-1) - He tired badly last out going a mile at this level, but it was his first in seven months, and he's been sharp in his second off of layoffs in the past.
4th pick: #3 (Proud Trick) (8-1) - Speed/stalker was claimed on Sept. 11th at Penn National by Vic Collazo for $10K, and has been freshened up since. Can factor with his best.
