Top pick: #8 (DON CAVALLO) - Lightly raced and improving, he's in one of best barns in Canada (Roger Attfield) and he was a game wire-to-wire winner at Gulfstream at this distance in fast time on Feb. 2. He's working fast since and this son of "El Prado" doesn't need the lead to win. The top pick.
2nd pick: #7 (Doubles Partner) - He was less than a length off of Don Cavallo last out in his first race since last June and this lightly raced 4-year-old by "Rock Hard Ten" brings rider Jayson Leparoux with him. Strong finisher is in the Pletcher barn and this colt can contend for the win with a step forward in his second off the long break.
3rd pick: #6 (Voodoo Swinge) - Home-bred by "Unbridled's Song" has won five in a row since finishing fourth in his debut and he's a perfect 3 for 3 on this surface. He rallied from far back here on Feb. 17 to win going away in a tough optional-claiming field and that was his first start since a win at Delaware Park in late May. Has a ton of ability and he's a win candidate in his first stakes try.
