Top pick: #5 (CELEBRITY SIGHTING) - Lightly raced grey filly is improving for the Rick Dutrow barn and he'll be stretching her out in distance this afternoon. Daughter of "Holy Bull" ran 2nd last out at Belmont going 7 furlongs in her first start in almost three months. Drops into a claimer again and is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #2 (Pyramist) - Twenty-one time winner ( yes 21 times) and the reast of the field combined has 14. Veteran mare hasn't raced since last Oct. qt Laurel, but is training nicely at Monmouth and her trainer (Pete Walder)wins at a 40% clip off of long breaks. Dangerous rival.
3rd pick: #1 (Quixsand) - Price play has the rail and will be stretching-out in distance and going turf to dirt . Filly ran evenly last out at Belmont and will run with lasix added for the first time. Speed play with an apprentice aboard.
