Top pick: #11 (ALLTHEWAYYEAH) (3-1) - Lightly raced gelding chased and tired facing much tougher last out in her first off a Mike Trombetta claim. He drops him back down to the purchase price, cuts him back in distance, and 4yo draws a nice outside post.
2nd pick: #9 (Keyhole) (8-1) - Nice effort last out at this level going a mile saw him set the pace and hang on gamely to finish 3rd while under pressure. His connections bring him back in 6 days and cut him back in distance.
3rd pick: #6 (Whistle Included) (5-1) - Runs 3rd off a claim and he's raced evenly in his first pair facing better. Drops back down to the claimed level and he lokes this price-tag.
4th pick: #10 (Leaveyourfearsbehind) (8-1) - He rallied to finish 2nd here racing at this level and distance on Jan 8th going 6 furlongs. He's had 4 weeks to recover and the extra furlong he travels today is in his favor.
5th pick: #2 (Deposit On Room) (6-1) - Deep closer has had 11 tries at this condition and his lack of speed is a concern. A small slice may be his ceiling.
