Top pick: #4 (GRAN CESARE) - Veteran mid-pack runner has been finishing in the money against $7500 foes, and will drop down to face $5000 opposition today. He's faced some tough "grizzled" rivals in his recent races, and this field doesn't go that deep.
2nd pick: #1 (Meadow Blue) - He did not run well last out from a poor post (11) going seven furlongs, but in his previous race he finished a close-up third at this level and distance. Price play.
3rd pick: #10 (Munroe Bank) - He finished a solid third at this level and distance last out in his first try at this level. Repeat effort makes him a win threat.
