Mt early, unresearched pick is Summer Doldrums... just because he is from NY and I like his jockey. : )

How's that for solid handicapping?

Well, Street Sense can't be thrown out, and I like Any Given Saturday and Nobiz Like Showbiz too. (and about 15 more of them!) I can't seem to narrow it down yet.
