Top pick: #4 (HIGHER COURT) - He's only run three times, but has left quite an impression in his brief career. Colt has won two of those and finished second in the other. From the "world class" Darley operation, trainer Tom Albertrani will race him on conventional dirt for the first time. This runner is very fast from the gate and will be tough on the lead if he takes to "real" dirt.
2nd pick: #1 (Wine Police) - He's one of a pair entered by trainer Steve Asmussen and the two will ruce uncoupled. Talented colt finished a solid third last out here in the G2 Amsterdam S. and has been extra sharp in all four starts on this surface. Has the rail, a flexible style, and he gives Asmussen a strong hand in this stakes.
