Top pick: #9 (UPSELL) - Speedy runner comes into this in-shape, at a good level and distance, draws a great post, has a bullet drill 5 days ago, and races third back off a long layoff. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #4 (Smoke Trail) - Moves up in class today seeking his third in a row. Gelding has good positional speed and this is his favorite track and distance.
3rd pick: #5 (Calbo) - Another speed/stalker he's had a pair of sharp starts at this meet and that brings his local mark to (5-2-1-0). He defeated "Smoke Trail" two back and last out was beaten by a Ness drop down. Contends today.
