Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (LEAVEMEATTHEGATE) (3-1) - Well bred colt finished an even and wide third Oct. 29 at Belmont when racing at this level and distance. He still has room for upside and this son of 'Kitten's Joy' gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #1 (Lucky Town) (12-1) - Longshot has fine early speed and breaks from the rail. He tired while wide last out going seven furlongs following a career best second place finish Oct. 13. Can be in this from start-to-finish at a square price.
3rd pick: #11 (Rooftop View) (5-1) - Consistent sort has gone 11-2-3-2 on the grass and is 3-1-1-0 in the past on this course. A strong factor if able to avoid a wide trip.
4th pick: #5 (River Knight) (8-1) - Speedy sort has finished second in two straight facing 'open' company claimers. In shape and his early foot makes him dangerous in this spot.
5th pick: #7 (Freedom Seven) (10-1) - No-speed type should get a fast/and or contested pace to close into. Fits with his best and can factor at a big price.
