Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (THREE PERFECTIONS) (3-1) - Speedy sort is working fast for his first since Sept. 25. He finished a close up second that day at Belmont and earned a very good figure. Three-year-old gets a slight edge in a very competitive field.
2nd pick: #2 (Sport) (6-1) - Colt has been freshened up for the past 2.5 months. Son of 'Hard Spun' has a strong closing kick and draws a ground saving post. Stretch threat.
3rd pick: #6 (Alsinaafy) (2-1) - Irish import raced both wide and evenly when debuting at Belmont Sept. 25. He was only 1.5 lengths behind 'Three Perfections' that day and is from a strong second out barn of Chad Brown (26%).
4th pick: #1 (L'Ange Bleu) (7-2) - Rare German import is getting into shape and has been competitive in both starts since coming off a year's layoff Sept. 26. Dangerous in this well bred and balanced looking group.
