Top pick: #4 (LAW REVIEW) (2-1) - Speed/stalker chased and tired in the final 1/16th to finish third at this level going just a bit longer March 24th. Gelding is from a hot barn (Mike Silva) and has a tactical advantage on this field with his early speed. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #8 (Visible Marq) (5-2) - He tired after setting a swift pace racing here at this level and distance March 21st. It was his first since late July of 2013 and this stakes placed runner no doubt needed the effort. Speedy sort could move forward or regress in his second off the 20-month absence.
3rd pick: #7 (Flaming Glory) (10-1) - Old timer raced evenly here at this level going 5-furlongs March 28th. 12-year-old was racing for the first time since late July. He won here in his second back from a similar break in Feb of 2-14 and was working fast before his return effort. In the mix.
4th pick: #6 (Tonight At Eleven) (12-1) - One-paced type catches a field where the pace should be fast and/or contested. That should enable him to pass some during the stretch run and get a piece of this at a big price.
