I realize betting against Pletcher is never a sure thing, but as favororite, this may be a good spot to try and beat this horse.
That said, the rest of the field is fairly evenly matched. #3 Moyers Pond made a nice forward move in the slop last out, a pair-up of that would give him a good shot. #8 Reporting for Duty has been running an 0/x pattern (which means one good one, one bad one), today should be a good one if that pattern holds. #5 Delightful Kiss has an 0-2-somewhat x pattern (4, 6, 8.75 on the turf) and has 1 months rest for today.
So I say, box those 3, #'s 3,5 and 8. You can also use just about anyone else, but Cowtown Cat will be a big underlay.
