Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (STRATEGIC OUTLOOK) (8-5) - Note: This race has been taken 'off the turf' and switched to the main track at the same distance. This 3yo by 'Medaglia d'Oro' sold for $300,000 and is dropped into a $75K claimer by trainer Chad Brown. This gelding finished 2nd when debuting here on the grass July 8 and has been working steadily on the dirt since.

2nd pick: #4 (Eagle Pass) (5-2) - He raced evenly when debuting on the Saratoga turf at this distance for a $75,000 price tag July 20. Claimed that day by Linda Rice, and she wins at a solid 29% rate first off the claim. This gelding is a win candidate with Castellano aboard.

3rd pick: #3 (Clyde's Runner) (8-1) - Longshot is racing on the dirt for the first time. He finished 2nd when debuting here in a grass sprint June 20, then had excuses in his follow-up pair at Saratoga. Price play.

4th pick: #8 (Vettel) (12-1) - Another racing first off a claim, he had a troubled break when debuting in a Saratoga sprint for a $50K tag Aug. 13.
