Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (BULLEADED BOY) (5-1) - He ships back from Laurel where he rallied to miss by a 'neck' in a $151,000 turf stakes. Strong finisher enters in career best form, is working above average, and trainer Todd Pletcher has John Velazquez aboard. The veteran rider has done well on this New York bred in the past.
2nd pick: #6 (Disco Partner) (4-1) - Lightly-raced Generazio home bred is moving up in class and stretching out in distance. He enters off a career best at Belmont when he defeated weaker going 7-furlongs. Only 'Bullheaded Boy' earned a better last out figure and this stalker is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (Mark In Style) (12-1) - Dangerous long shot, he's moving up in class after missing by a 'neck' going a mile on the Belmont turf Oct 22 for a $50K tag. Consistent sort breaks just off the rail and has a 'hot' rider (Kendrick Carmouche) aboard.
4th pick: #9 (Indebted) (3-1) - Son of 'Malibu Moon' ships back from Woodbine where he was beaten just under five lengths in a $131K turf stakes. It was his only 'off the board' effort in six career starts and home bred can factor if he can avoid a wide trip from his outside post.
