Top pick: #5 (BALLERINO) (3-1) - Gulfstream shipper drops slightly and meets a weak field in his Tampa debut. He had a "poor" start in his latest but made up a lot of ground after racing far back early on. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #4 (True Marco) (8-1) - He has some speed and will be trying the grass for the first time. 5-year-old tired in a switched contest last out in his first race in 3 1/2 months and can impact today at a big price.
3rd pick: #6 (Courtmaster) (6-1) - Gelding showed a much improved effort last out when he was involved in the pace until tiring in the final furlong. Working well since and a threat with some improvement.
4th pick: #8 (Wilko's Bullet) (5-1) - Lightly-raced colt moves to the grass and tries a two-turn distance, both for the first time. He showed an improved effort last out in his second start and is bred to like the turf.
