Indy' has the best early speed of this group and earned the best last out Beyer figure of his five opponents. It came here at this distance July 28 and establishes him as the top selection.
2nd pick: #3 (Gloves Off) (5-2) - Lightly-raced colt has been freshened up since breaking his maiden June 14 at Philadelphia Park. Clearly improving and trainer Tony Dutrow has Javier Castellano aboard for this runners first facing fellow winners.
3rd pick: #6 (St Louie) (4-1) - In very good form on the grass, trainer Mike Maker will switch him to the main track for only the second time. Stalker was claimed by Maker for $35,000 July 1 and this 4-year-old breezed a sharp half-mile here on the dirt Aug 9. A strong factor if he can transfer his turf form.
