Top pick: #6 (SLEWISSURFING) (5-2) - He's been bet in both stats and has flashed early speed in each. Gelding improved his figure significantly in his second appearance and is working fast for this attempt. Four-year-old gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #13 (Fifteen Black) - Strong win candidate, he finished second here at this tag and trip on April 26th. It was his first race in eight weeks and first at this $20k tag. Gelding has taken some serious money in his four appearances and view him as the equal of "Slewissurfing"
3rd pick: #3 (Compulsive) (6-1) - Gelding showed fine early speed in several of his 2013 starts and is working above average for his first since early Nov. His connections drop him to a new low and he's a threat if ready.
4th pick: #14 (Grey is Best) (15-1) - Grey gelding is not a win candidate, but has some speed and may hold on for a small slice at a square price.
5th pick: #5 (Vite Tribal Reign) (12-1) - Debuting gelding by the recently deceased "Tribal Rule" is in a capable barn (Pete Eurton) and has been training steadily since early Feb.
