Top pick: #6 (TWELVE K RUN) (3-1) - One of two fillies taking on males in this dirt sprint. She's dropping down in class and is switching from turf to dirt while cutting back in distance. Daughter of "Noonmark" tired after chasing the pace last out and is working fast for this attempt. In the barn of leading trainer Bob Diodoro, and I like her chances.
2nd pick: #1 (Peter Repeater) (5-1) - He's part of a Jeff Metz trained entry with #1a "Where's My Voucher," and both geldings are debuting off of sharp works.
3rd pick: #5 (Cup of Soup) (3-1) - She's the second of the two fillies taking on the boys. Daughter of turf champ "Einstein" has early speed, and last out tired to finish third at this level after being "bumped" at the break. Factors today.
4th pick: #8 (Amber Ale) (10-1) - Longshot is lightly raced, dropping in class, and is racing with lasix administered for the first time. Can factor at a big price.
