Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (SMILE BIG) (7-2) - Maiden is taking on winners in this spot. Filly 'won' on the local turf Nov. 13 but was disqualified for not keeping a straight path down the stretch. Daughter of sprint champ 'Big Drama' has run well on the dirt in the past and was competitive on the inner-surface last winter in both starts.
2nd pick: #7 (Ice Palace) (2-1) - The morning line favorite, no-speed type is working sharply for her first since Oct. 21. She's picked up minor awards in the past facing tougher and should be closing fast in this spot.
3rd pick: #3 (Saratiago) (10-1) - Another without much early speed, she's switching from grass to dirt for this attempt. She rallied to finish a close up fourth at this level and distance on the local grass Nov. 27.
