Top pick: #2 (ESTROGEN ROCKETTE) - Has the best early speed and there isn't a lot of other pace signed on. Lightly raced he ran a strong second here Sept.6 in his first since coming here from Evangeline Downs. Can take this at the expense of the favorite.
2nd pick: #4 (Centripedal Motion) - Probable heavy favorite finished second here Sept. 21 in her first back off a seven week break and she has a fine effort on wet surfaces (4-1-2-0). Very tough at a short price.
3rd pick: #6 (Love in the Heir) - Lightly raced, recent maiden winner has room for upside and is in a good barn (Phil Aristone). Can factor in the exotics.
