Top pick: #7 (MACHO CAMACHO) - Ness trained veteran has finished second in two straight here at this level and distance. Beaten just a "neck" last out and this 7-year-old has a flexible style and a good post. The top selection.
2nd pick: #1 (Sliding In) - Lightly raced, he's run well in all four dirt sprints, has the rail, good positional speed, and Centeno is on board. Tough if he breaks cleanly.
3rd pick: #6 (Belafonte) - Has ability and the last time he ran at this distance on the turf he won at Arlington Sept. 12. Consistent sort races off a three month break and is a threat with his best.
