Top pick: #3 (TWANG) (3-1) - Grey colt made a wide bid and flattened out to finish third when debuting at Churchill on June 21st. Nice effort and it was complimented when the second-place runner broke his msiden next out. He's in a more than capable barn (Al Stall Jr.) and the trainer won the stakes here on Thursday.
2nd pick: #6 (Sky Drama) (5-2) - His trainer (Steve Asmussen) has gotten off to a fast start at the meet and this $100K son of "Sky Mesa" ran second when debuting at Churchill four weeks ago. Asmussen is always better second time out and this colt has worked three times locally in the past 20 days. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #5 (Bay of Biscay) (9-5) - The probable favorite, colt by "Giant's Causeway" cost $750K and is in the barn of leading trainer Todd Pletcher. Working well locally since late May, but is bred to want more distance. A win threat despite that fact.
