Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (AMBIVALENT) (2-1) - Competitive in both sprints, he's moving back in with maidens following a good effort here in a G3 Aug. 8. He's stretching out in distance for the first time and this $550K purchase gets top billing.

2nd pick: #4 (Man Friday) (7-2) - From the barn of Bob Baffert, this $325K son of 'American Pharoah' raced both wide and evenly debuting here in a sprint Aug. 16. Back in 15 days, Baffert stretches him out, a 25% winning angle for a barn that wins at a 24% rate 2nd time out.

3rd pick: #5 (Waspirant) (3-1) - A home-bred by 'Union Rags,' he tired while wide debuting here in a sprint Aug. 8. Bred for this longer distance, trainer John Shrieffs wins at a 29% rate 2nd time out and at a 22% clip on the stretch out.
