Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (LITTLE JUANITO) (5-2) - He's finished 2nd in two straight at this level, and in both was beaten by very promising types. Speed/stalker is racing second back from a seven-month layoff and will be a handful in this spot.
2nd pick: #4 (Red Lightning) (4-1) - Blinkers go on this colt who raced evenly when finishing three lengths in back of 'Little Juanito' July 1. Much sharper in his previous start, colt has been working very fast since his latest, presumably with the 'hood' attached.
3rd pick: #7 (Troublewithatee) (8-1) - Longshot is racing for the first time since Feb. 11 and is shortening up in distance. NEW gelding Has finished close up in five straight and should get a fast and/or contested pace to rally into.
4th pick: #9 (Way Gone) (3-1) - Debuting 4yo is from the Baffert barn (25% first out). Working very fast, he needs to break sharply from his outside post for any chance against a strong field for the level.
