Top pick: #7 (MIGHT BE HOOKED) - Latest, a pace-chasing, third-place finish at this level was veteran's best race since last summer and indicates he's "snapped-out" of a dull period. Repeat of his last can win this. The choice in a competitive, but good betting race.
2nd pick: #9 (He's a Flyer) - Veteran just missed last out at this tag and distance in his third back of almost a seven-month layoff. He has a great work since and it's Heiler off and Stevens on. Big factor today.
3rd pick: #5 (Kickapole) - Stalker has finished second in three of his last four, all at this level and distance. No reason he won't run well again.
4th pick: #4 (Diamond Dan) - He ran a very good race last out when his connections stretched him oit in distance for only the second time in a 30-race career. Contender again this afternoon.
