Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (JETOVATOR) (5-2) - The field's most experienced maiden has been competitive in all four starts on the grass, each coming at one mile. Speed/stalker is shortening up to 5.5 furlongs a distance he's run well at on the dirt. I give him a slight edge.
2nd pick: #6 (Fellow Citizen) (4-1) - NEW gelding was involved every step when beaten a 1/2 length debuting in a dirt sprint facing $50K Cal-bred claimers July 15. Unraced since he's working steadily and moves up in class while switching to the grass. Dangerous if ready.
3rd pick: #1 (A Man's Man) (3-1) - Away slowly, he raced evenly when debuting at this level in a dirt sprint at Los Al Dec 8. In his follow up here Jan 5, 4yo broke sharply, set a pressured pace, then weakened to check in a distant 3rd. $120K purchase is a threat if he handles the switch to the turf.
