Top pick: #1 (CHARBROILED) (7-5) - Gelding finished a pace-chasing second here at this tag on March 2nd in his first in a claimer and first on the dirt. Has the rail, the best early spreed, and home-bred is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #2 (Ice Cream Truck) (4-1) - Stalker has finished second in two straight here with one of that pair coming at this distance. In shape, fits, and is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #6 (Jimrony) (7-2) - Debuting gelding has some fine works on view and trainer Ron Ellis is having a very straong meet. Five-year-old meets a weak field once beyond the top two picks and could be a major threat if he runs to his AM drills.
4th pick: #8 (Slight Edge) (8-1) - He's had some starts in his career that make him a factor and he's gone 6-0-1-2 on the local dirt. Draws a nice outside post and has blinkers on for the first time.
