Top pick: #6 (REQUISITION) - He chased a fast pace in his debut facing special weights and tired while having some traffic issues late in the stretch run. Drops into a claimer today and trainer Bob Troeger's main-rider, Pat Valenzuela takes over. Looks like graduation day.
2nd pick: #2 (Rockin Harbor) - The probable favorite is improving with each start and last out finished 2nd here at this tag and trip. Gelding has a fast work since and is a serious threat from off the pace.
3rd pick: #8 (Bell Blitz) - Drops into a claimer for the first time and does so off an 80-day break. Working nicely on the new surface here and this will be his first ever on the dirt.
