Top pick: #7 (N. B. A. MONEY) - He flew home while racing wide last out and was a head back of today's rival Purincat. That Dec. 10 effort was his first on the grass and he's since come back with three sharp works. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #4 (Purincat) - Looks like the main danger as he held off "Money" by a head last out while also finishing fast. Race was also his first on the infield and he's worked three times heading into this attempt. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #10 (Delivered) - Speedy colt finished one pace-setting second here at this level and distance on Dec. 28 and is brought back quickly by his small barn. Has a sharp drill a week ago, and his speed makes him a threat.
