Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #9 (HOT MAGISTRATE) (6-1) - Price play has been competitive in four straight with three of those coming at this level. Speed/stalker tired late after setting a quick and pressured pace to miss by 2.5 lengths here at this level and distance Jan. 4 and think she has a big shot at a square price.

2nd pick: #6 (Dance Costume) (5-2) - Homebred by 'Union Rags'ralied to finish second debuting here at this level in a 5.5-furlong grass sprint Jan 10. Trainer Tim Yakteen has worked her three times since, stretches her out to a mile, and he has Flavien Prat aboard for this attempt.

3rd pick: #5 (Our Romance) (5-1) - One of two entered by Phil D'Amato, she had some traffic issues when finishing fourth, a bit more than 2 lengths in back of 'Hot Magistrate' Nov. 10 at Del Mar. A win candidate.

4th pick: #1 (Too Hot for Curlin) (12-1) - Longshot is the second of the D'Amato trained pair and he moves from the 10-Post to the rail. Stretch runner has some efforts in her past that make this filly by 'Curlin' a threat and her ground-saving post is a plus.
