Top pick: #4 (EXTRASEXYHIPPZSTER) (7-2) - Lightly-raced 4-year-old ships in from Laurel where he's finished second in both starts since returning from a 8 1/2 month layoff in late January. Speed/stalker has won here in the past and that score came at this distance.
2nd pick: #1 (Siete de Oros) (5-2) - Once promising 5-year-old has won two of three since coming back from a pair of long layoffs in late December. All four career wins have been here at Philly Park and he won at this distance on Feb. 23. Obvious contender.
3rd pick: #7 (El Capitan) (6-1) - He was a major stakes winner in Mexico before being repatriated last summer. He hasn't won since returning, but has been competitive in three straight here. One-run type draws a nice outside post and should get a fast and/or contested pace to rally into.
4th pick: #6 (Fourth and Long) (5-1) - He was in very sharp form when his connections sent him in for a short vacation after he ran second here going longer on Jan. 12. Speedy sort seems best going farther, but is capable of impacting if ready with his best.
