Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (KLUSZEWSKI) (3-1) - Veteran is racing third back from a very long layoff 14.5 months and speed/stalker is dropping to a new low. He tired here Dec 2 facing tougher at this distance and seems set for a big effort.
2nd pick: #5 (Big Tall Paul) (8-5) - The morning line and probable favorite, he's finished second in two straight here at this tag and trip. The latest came on Dec. 4 when he was beaten a 'neck' in a solid attempt. An obvious win candidate at a short price.
3rd pick: #3 (Enuff Bull) (10-1) - Grey gelding raced evenly while very wide here when far back of 'Big Tall Paul' Dec. 4. Much sharper in his previous race, he has a better post than in his latest and may grab a share at a big price.
4th pick: #4 (Noble Artist) (15-1) - He's dropping down and switching from grass to dirt in his second back from 2.5 month layoff. He's two for two on the local dirt and rare Colorado bred is capable of getting a slice with his best.
