Not sure yet who I'll land on but one of these four:

Race 1, I like#1 Carrilero. 2 for 3 ITM down the hill, won off a layoff last race down the hill and placed in the G1 Mailbi as a 3 y.o.

Race 3, looks like #3 Solo Piano is lone speed and a solid play, but maidens scare me as does the layoff and first time down the hill.

In Race 6 I like # 7 Mini Do. She's won down the hill, is 7 of 9 lifetime ITM, and Canini is on fire this meet with 11 of 15 runners ITM.

In Race 7, Zappa looks like needs the lead type and while his class and speed figures are to be respected, I think he may get into a duel with Our Partner, and perhaps Silent Soul, so I'm staying away from him. Also staying away from Pletcher and Hollendorfer classy runners off the bench which leaves me looking at #1 Star Nicholas, 8 of 9 lifetime ITM on Synthetics, won a two turn mile on the Pro-Ride at SA out of the 1 hole on 9/24/08, 3rd off layoff, should like the stretch out and Eurton's stats are quite impressive. Might not win but looks like my play.

Best of Luck to all.

I'm going to try Towzee in the first. Didn't want to take Zappa, as my sister has that one (and would like not to have both of us go out on the same horse).

Phew I almost very nearly forgot about this contest since it hadn't been going on in a few days.

I'm going with Hewitts Race 1
