Top pick: #10 (CLOSE TO THE VEST) - The main speed draws a nice post to use it from as he runs first off a Rich Schosberg claim. Goes third off a 70-day rest and runs at a level he's been successful at in the past. The top pick in a nice betting race.
2nd pick: #5 (Broken Vow) - Classier type moves to the infield for the first time. Has many good efforts against tougher on the dirt and is a strong stretch threat if he handles the surface.
3rd pick: #6 (Marq of Love) - Moves back to the grass after a dirt race here where he made up a lot of ground after breaking "slowly." Previous trio of infield races at Belmont make him a win candidate.
4th pick: #1 (May Day Now) - Lightly-raced son of "Forestry" has speed/stalking ability, runs second off a seven-week break, and tries the turf for the first time. Rail draw is tough in these sprints and he'll need to avoid an "early shuffle" to have a shot.
