Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (TRANSPARENT) (2-1) - Freshened up for just under two months, gelding is taking a big drop in claiming price. Six-year-old has won on the inner surface in the past and holds a big class edge. Takes this with his best.
2nd pick: #2 (On Tap) (9-2) - One of two entered by trainer Rudy Rodriguez and the pair race uncoupled. Speed/stalker is racing first of a claim (35% for Rodriguez) and is working fast for this attempt. Grey gelding has won on the inner surface before and is a major threat.
3rd pick: #4 (Tuscan Getaway) (7-2) - The second of the Rodriguez pair, veteran is moving from turf to dirt for this assignment. He's won on dirt, grass and ploy and has more speed than most. Five-year-old is capable of factoring in this spot.
