Top pick: #8 (WESTERN DYNAMO) - Drops into a claimer for the first time and he's already run this demanding distance several times. The class drop is a big one and he'll also be going third off a layoff.
2nd pick: #7 (Westward Go) - Wide trip in his Spa. debut on July 6, no doubt cost him doing better. Fits with these, draws a good post, and trainer Dave Donk adds blinkers.
3rd pick: #5 (Chauvinist) - Had a poor post last out but still managed to rally late to finish a fast-closing fourth. Goes third off a layoff, and is a big player.
