Top pick: #11 (LITTLE POPSIE) (9-2) - He's one of two entered by trainer Todd Pletcher and the pair race uncoupled. Lightly raced colt has fine early speed, draws a good post to use it from, and had a huge bullet half-mile breeze at Belmont July 26.
2nd pick: #8 (Hunt's Road) (2-1) - The second of the Pletcher pair missed by a 'neck' at this level June 20 at Belmont. He's been very sharp in all three starts, is working fast, and completes a strong hand from the 'Hall of Fame' trainer.
3rd pick: #10 (Giantinthemoonlite) (6-1) - NEW gelding hasn't raced since March 15. Stalker has gone 8-0-3-3 at this condition since winning his debut 14 1/2 months ago and ran well here in late August of 2014. Training steadily and a threat at a square price.
4th pick: #6 (So Noted) (8-1) - Lightly raced, he's taking on winners for the first time. Colt was an impressive maiden winner going 6.5-furlongs at Belmont July 12 and worked a bullet 5-furlongs here July 27. Has the look of a runner with a bright future. Stretch threat.
