No. 4 Power Agenda (9-2) earned an improved speed rating in a sharp $10k claiming win at Parx on Dec. 6. He should be all over the pace at a hint of a price, and apprentice rider Mattie Martin booted this one home three times this year. 

No. 1 Causes Trouble (8-5) finished in the top three in his last eight starts. The consistent early-pressing gelding should impact the pace from the inside post. 

No. 3 Genghis (4-1) settled for minor awards in his last five dirt sprint attempts. He should make his presence felt in the lane. 

No. 7 Pylon (8-1) might work out a comfortable trip tracking the pace from the outside post. He finished a half-length behind Genghis last time, and he can go a bit better in his third start after a layoff.
