Top pick: #3 (SMOKIN SARAH) - Trainer Scott Lake drops this front-runner into a winning spot today. Unable to get the lead in her last several starts, she still showed good speed in all. The lead is hers for the taking and she's the horse to catch and beat.
2nd pick: #4 (Tide Runner) - Stretch runner has slipped a bit, but has been a reliable runner against tougher her whole career, winning 10 of 46 lifetime starts. She'd love a fast/contested pace to rally into.
3rd pick: #2 (Spunky) - Takes a big drop in class in her second off a Rich Schosberg claim. Way "over her head" last out, she fits at this level and had won five of her last eight starts prior to the recent claim. Contender.
4th pick: #8 (Stephen's Rhythm) - Consistent runner is three for seven on the year and finished second in her latest in another solid performance. Claimed that day by Gary Gullo and he's done well with previous claims maintaining their form.
