Top pick: #3 (KOVARRO) (2-1) - Speedy sort ships in from Monmouth where he finished a close up 4th at this tag June 7. It was his 2nd off a 7-week break and he meets a weak field. All set for his maiden score.
2nd pick: #4 (Shadows of Love) (8-1) - He has some speed, but all of his best efforts have come at Charles Town. His latest here wasn't all that bad, and he has a shot at a square price.
3rd pick: #1 (Purrfast) (6-1) - Longshot is even paced and is cutting back in distance. Grey gelding has the rail and can grab a share at a big price.
4th pick: #7 (Madam's Hero) (4-1) - Improving Pa bred was only beaten a length last out in a career best overall. Can factor with a repeat of it.
5th pick: #2 (Hello Zealous) (20-1) - Longshot has some early speed and draws a good post to use it from. May last for a minnow award at a very big price.
