Premium Pick

Top pick: #2 (COMMODORE WAY) - Has good speed and a good post to use it from. Son of "Menifee" finished a strong second May 9 at Belmomt racing for $35K, then chased and finished evenly on July 9 at that same level. Drops down to $25,000 this afternoon and runner is well spotted for a big effort.

2nd pick: #5 (Lonely Highway) - Re-claimed by trainer Brice Levine last out at Belmont after he had lost him for two races. Speed/stalker is capable against this group and it's of particular note that Levine wins at an excellent 40% with his fresh claims.

3rd pick: #1 (Untopable) - Probable front-runner draws the rail and will be racing off almost a two month layoff for trainer Steve Klesaris. Veteran gelding likes to win races(8 for 35)and runs at a tag today ($20,000) that he's been successful at in the past.
