Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (IN TROUBLE) (2-1) - Once very promising type is making back-to-back starts for the first time since the spring of 2014. A G2 winner on dirt as a 2yo, he's taking a big drop in class, switching from grass to the main track, and is stretching out in distance. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #8 (Downgoesfrazier) (5-2) - Gelding rallied strongly to win a six-furlong sprint at this tag on the Belmont grass Oct. 25th. In shape, he's stretching back out in distance, has run well on this course in the past, and John Velazquez stays aboard.
3rd pick: #7 (Chang's Secret) (12-1) - Longshot has some early speed and is another stretching back out in distance. One of his two career wins came on this course at this time a year ago going a mile.
