Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (UP WITH THE SUN) (2-1) - Speedy colt rallied to finish third here Nov 25 going six furlongs on a muddy surface at this level. It was a career best and first since he shipped back north from Florida. He has the rail and leading rider Irad Ortiz Jr. is aboard. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #3 (Crea Can Do) (12-1) - Long shot continues to race evenly for trainer Mike Dilger. He drops him to a new low and if this $115,000 purchase has any talent, it will come out against this field.
3rd pick: #4 (Hangry) (6-1) - Improving sort rallied to finish second Nov 13 going a mile facing a bit tougher. It was his first in blinkers and this son of 'Macho Uno' should like this two-turn trip.
4th pick: #7 (Par) (4-1) - He's going turf to dirt and dropping in class for trainer Todd Pletcher. Obscurely bred colt showed nothing racing on the local grass facing better Nov 22. Barn wins at a 24% rate second-time out and at a solid 33% clip on this particular drop in class.
