Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (DATA DRIVEN) (7-2) - Lightly-raced colt moves up in class in his first off a claim by owner/trainer Dave Jacobson (a 19% winning angle). Four-year-old won a $50K 2l claimer going seven furlongs last out and earned a career best figure. Gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #4 (Splashtastic) (5-2) - Very lightly-raced, he's facing winners for the first time. Three-year-old colt was a daylight winner Oct. 16 at Belmont going 8.5 furlongs. Only his third lifetime start, it was his second of a two month break and a positive trainer change to Rudy Rodriguez.
3rd pick: #2 (Money Changer) (7-2) - Grey gelding has raced evenly in three straight starts at this level. From the Pletcher barn, 4-year-old was beaten 2.5 lengths at this trip Oct. 21 at Belmont Park. It was his first back off a seven week freshening and stalker is an obvious contender.
4th pick: #3 (Foreset) (5-1) - Speed stalker enters off a pace-setting second place finish at this level and distance Oct. 21 at Belmont. He was 1.5 lengths in front of 'Money Changer' that day but will probably face more pace pressure in this spot. Nonetheless, he must be left in the mix.
