Top pick: #1 (MARINE PARK) (3-1) - Lightly raced colt was scratched by trainer Bob Dibona out of this past Saturday's last race at Monmouth to await this spot. Stalker ran evenly there to finish fourth there on a sloppy surface May 19 in his first off a claim and can take this from just off the lead.
2nd pick: #6 (Sneaky Devil) (9-2) - Dangerous opponent ships back from Penn National where he chased and weakened facing a bit tougher on May 16. Winning barn (Ramon Preciado) drops him to a new low, and this colt is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #3 (Merryvale Cab) (4-1) - He's one of two entered by trainer Randy Allen, and the pair race uncoupled. Gelding has gone 8-0-2-2, and ships back from Penn National where he rallied to finish fourth on May 16. 3yo has "off" track experience, and he's done well on it.
4th pick: #7 (Buzzonkey) (8-1) - He showed nothing when debuting here for a $15K tag just 16 days ago, and he took a bit of money that afternoon. Drops, is brought back quickly, and he'll be more competitive this afternoon.
5th pick: #10 (Ron the Lawyer) (6-1) - This is start #18, and a small slice would appear to be his ceiling. Grey colt tends to race evenly and he has a tough outside post.
