Top pick: #4 (SANDYNECK) - Veteran ran a huge race last out at this level and distance. He fought hard on the front end from start-to-finish and was beaten a "nose" in the last stride. Good barn (Bill Brashears) brings him back quickly for this (16 days) and he can win this with a repeat of that effort.
2nd pick: #3 (Press Release) - He wasn't far off the top pick last out at the finish and he had some traffic issues during the stretch run. Race was his first ever on the turf and he should snwak away at a nice price in this field. Contender.
3rd pick: #2 (That Tiger) - Stretch-out sprinter finished second here last out going 4.5 furlongs. Race was his first on the grass and was the best from a "figure" stand-point in his career. This will be his first ever around two-turns. Can factor this afternoon.
