Top pick: #8 (HOME SCHOOL) (6-1) - Irish-bred is in career best form and this colt showed some fine ability in his native country last year at a 2yo. Stalker has finished close up here in his last pair and they came following a half-year's absence. Take him to score a "mild" upset
2nd pick: #6 (Forever Juanito) (7-2) - Lightly raced and this gelding has been sharp in every career outing 5-2-1-2. He has a flexibly style and won a stakes on this course going "down the hill" on May 3rd. In shape, working well, and a win candidate.
3rd pick: #4 (Home Run Kitten) (2-1) - The "morning line" favorite, strong finisher has gone 4-2-1-1 on this course this year and has just missed in a pair of stakes earlier in the meet. In career best shape at present, working fast, and an obvious win threat.
4th pick: #1 (Sawyer's Hill) (8-1) - Very lightly raced colt ships back from Golden Gate Fields where he was a very impressive maiden win on May 17. It was his first ever on the grass and earned him a lofty "figure". Working fast, has the rail, and can factor at a squate price.
5th pick: #2 (Toowindytohaulrox) (10-1) - Another that's lightly raced, he's been sharp in all three grass starts and is working fast for his first since Jan 16. Must be left in the mix.
