Top pick: #3 (LEMON DROP DREAM) (7-2) - He lost all chance in his latest when he broke "in the air" and ran evenly once in stride. Race was his first in just over five months and he can take this with a "clean" getaway.
2nd pick: #10 (Noble Power) (4-1) - Irish-bred colt ran well despoie some serious traffic issues when debuting at a tough distance (9 furlongs) here on Feb. 9. 3-year-old took a lot of betting action that day and should be much sharper in start No. 2.
3rd pick: #4 (Democrat Duck) (5-1) - He rallied from ust off the pace to finish second in the same Feb. 9 race that "Noble Power" debuted in. Sharp effort and the Hollendorfer barn has worked mim three times since.
4th pick: #9 (Kings Giant) (5-1) - Colt showed much improved early speed last out and held to finish a close-up fourth in the same Feb. 9 contest common to several others. In the mix.
5th pick: #1 (Cool Roger) (20-1) - Longshot tired badly when debuting in a 7 furlong dirt race on Feb. 16. Good second out barn (Carla Gaines 20%) moves him to the grass and stretches him out in distance. May grab a share at a very big price.
