    Looking for an Indianapolis 500 dark-horse pick to look smart at today's family picnic? Consider the advice of race front-runners.

    "Tags is one of those," Ryan Briscoe said of No. 5-starting Alex Tagliani, who drives for one of the newest Izod IndyCar Series teams.

    "And that KV car of (Mario) Moraes. He always looks good in practice."

    Said No. 6-starting Scott Dixon: "Probably (Dan) Wheldon, but Moraes, too."

    Wheldon finished second in last year's race and is in his second year with Panther Racing. He'll start 18th. He started 16th in 2005 when he won.

    Wheldon was seventh in Friday's one-hour practice. Moraes was eighth and Tagliani 10th.
