Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (TOUCHDOWN) (6-1) - He's caught 'off' tracks in three straight facing tougher. 4yo has raced evenly in each and is dropping to a new low in claiming price in today's finale. Has a solid shot at a square price.
2nd pick: #9 (Vancouver) (3-1) - Lightly raced and speedy, he's racing first off a Nick Esler claim, and he has Irad Ortiz, Jr. aboard. Gelding by 'Tiznow' should be involved from start-to-finish.
3rd pick: #13 (Easy Comparison) (4-1) - He has a tough post, but is nearing his best after coming back from a 3.5-month layoff. He's been competitive facing tougher in the past and is a stretch threat.
4th pick: #7 (Thirty Percent) (15-1) - Longshot runs first off a Mark Tasso claim, and this speed/stalker races with blinkers on. Competitive facing tougher at Finger Lakes, he's capable of getting a share at a big price.
5th pick: #1 (Promise and Hope) (8-1) - One run type has the rail and fits on his best 'figure.' He needs to avoid dropping too far back on the turn. Believe a minor award is his ceiling.
