Top pick: #5 (FOOTBRIDGE) (2-1) - Darley/Goldophin home-bred has a speed/stalking style and will go from turf to dirt after a solid third-place finish here at this level on the grass March 8th. It was his best since returning from a long layoff on Jan. 5 and he has a fine record in the past on the local dirt 5-1-2-1.
2nd pick: #6 (Seeking the West) (8-5) - He's listed as the morning line favorite and has gone 3-0-2-0 here at this level since breaking his maiden in late Dec. Speed/stalker should be involved every step.
3rd pick: #1 (Woodman's Luck) (7-2) - Long-winded type is one of two entered by trainer Vlad Cerin. Strong finisher doesn't win very often (2-for-27), but he working nicely and last out finished second at this level and distance on the grass.
4th pick: #2 (Honduran) (4-1) - Lightly-raced gelding by "Macho Uno" is the second of the Cerin duo. He was away slowly last out and improved his position late. That was his first in 11 months and he's brought back in 13 days for this attempt.
