Rail spot goes to this colt of modest accomplishments (N2L winner).\u00a0 <\/SPAN>His last race, a second in the restricted Benelux Special, puts him much more on the map on account of the much-improved speed number earned, a 95.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>He\u2019s hopped across the globe a few times but is now well-rested since his December freshman finale.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>If the last race is prologue, more improvement could be in store, pointing to a strong finish at long odds.<\/P>

Young sire War<\/st1:PlaceName> Pass<\/st1:PlaceType><\/st1:place> is off to a good start, and so is this one.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>He has not been off the board in seven races, including a long march through his conditions in Upper New York<\/st1:place>.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>His style is speed and more speed, and the backers of this longshot must hope that there is more in the tank than his high-80s speeds have so far shown.<\/P>

California<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> invader just cleared his N2L, but is a mile veteran, having competed at the distance since his September maiden win.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>He should be toward the front of the main pack early and can motor in the lane if he\u2019s in form.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The last race earned him a competitive speed number (94) even if the competition was suspect.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Worth a flier if he looks good to you.<\/P>

Ted\u2019s guy is just a maiden winner, but the speed credentials are creditable.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>He\u2019s broken through to the low 90s his last two, even though they were both runner-up efforts.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>There\u2019s a good stalking style and proven ability to run well at this distance.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Still, for my money, more interesting longshots are taking to the gate here.<\/P>

Your 2009 Breeders’ Bowl Juvenile Turf winner (at 20-1!) tries dirt for the first time to start his sophomore season, so his connections may be wondering if he can repeat his Turf heroics on the Bluegrass Derby path.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>It\u2019s worth a try, for while Grade A broodmare ALBERTA<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> GOLD was a turf gal, she is a Forty Niner\/Seattle Slew.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>That may outweigh the turf-leaning blood coming from sire Black Hawk(GB).\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Overall, he\u2019s going to pop something more like his Turf-winning 99 speed than those of his other races.<\/o:p><\/P>

First stakeswinner for sire Street Boss; handily defeated rival to his inside in the Giant Slayer in January.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>There\u2019s been steady improvement, and all three wins are at route distances.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>A win will vault him into the top 20 in the division, which aught to help if he\u2019s headed for the Derby<\/st1:place><\/st1:City>.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The choice off his big recent speed numbers.<\/P>

Nice to see a Smoke Glacken among these –\u00a0 <\/SPAN>and this grey colt has shown a commendable ability to run late in races up to seven furlongs.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Though his sire is more known for sprints, it stands to reason that this offspring of a top-bred mare will have no trouble with the extra furlong.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>His performances are all excellent other than his three graded tries, so he still has a lot to prove at this level.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>His fifth in the LA Prevue was not a clunker, and he comes in off a win in a minor stakes with a solid 94 speed.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Take the odds if you\u2019re interested and look for him in the lane.<\/P>

Trying to build a resume, but he was an also-ran in his two Grade 3 attempts, the Charcoal Breeders and the Delta Jackpot.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>That leaves him as yet another here boasting only N2L wins.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The potential is obvious, but he\u2019s no win machine.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>It\u2019s unclear whether he has found his best running style, having tried (and won) on the front end and coming late.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Seems a little risky at 8-1 odds.<\/P>

Lone Irish-bred liked the switch to dirt just fine, rushing to three wins to complete his 2009 season.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>He\u2019ll have to fight off the other speed, and the speed numbers over his career are moderate for a graded stakes for 3yos.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>A win seems iffy \u2013 perhaps tag for third in your trifecta wagers.<\/P>

Stuck on the outside and given the least chance of winning, the son of Monsun is among the weakest of the N2L winner group, since she just cleared it January 9th.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>That was an 89 speed, which trends the right direction but is unlikely to scare anyone here.<\/P>
