Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (CAPTAIN TIM) (5-2) - He's finished second in two straight and was beaten a 'neck' in each. Stalker could have won either with a bit of luck and is the horse to beat in this one-mile contest.
2nd pick: #1 (Crowd Funding) (5-1) - He's one of two entered by trainer Chad Brown and the pair race uncoupled. This $240K gelded son of 'Flatter' ran fourth sprinting six furlongs at Belmont when debuting Oct 16. He's worked four times since for Brown (31% second-time out). Trainer wins at a 30% clip on the stretch out and Irad Ortiz Jr. stays aboard.
3rd pick: #4 (Aldrin) (3-1) - The second from the Brown barn, he's finished second in three straight and is racing off a bit more than seven month layoff. Speed/stalker is working well and should be involved from start-to-finish.
4th pick: #7 (Kick Off) (6-1) - Godolphin bred son of 'Bernardini' has been competitive in four straight and last out he finished third here at this level and distance. Price play draws a fine outside post at this one-turn mile and must be left in the mix.
