Top pick: #1 (CINDER BLOCK) (8-5) - The probable favorite, speedy colt is lightly raced, and like several others is trying the grass for the first time. Son of "Stroll" has finished second in both dirt races and is bred for turf success.
2nd pick: #5 (What's Your Excuse) (3-1) - Grey colt has gone 8-0-2-4 on the dirt, and speed/stalker is another trying the grass for the first time. Pa-bred should enjoy the surface change and is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #3 (Do It for Fun) (10-1) - On the sidelines since March 17, one paced type has gone 11-0-2-2 on the dirt and is trying the infield off the long break. His sire ("Langfuhr") is a superior grass sire, and this 4yo may factor at a big price.
4th pick: #4 (Nile Seeker) (12-1) - Lightly raced colt is by a rising young stallion "Pioneer of the Nile," and he has previous grass experience. Freshened up since late July, he has some speed, and must be left in the mix.
