Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1a (DAY OF RECKONING) (3-1) - He's part of a Rudy Rodriguez trained entry with #1 'Shanghai Storm.' Gelding chased a fast pace while wide before tiring during the stretch run when debuting at this tag July 31 at Saratoga. Claimed by Rodriguez that afternoon, he wins at a 33% rate first off the barn change and he has Irad Ortiz, Jr. aboard.

2nd pick: #8 (Magnanimus Man) (5-2) - Speedy gelding is racing second back off a seven week break, is moving from grass to dirt, is shortening back up in distance, and trainer Wesley Ward drops him into a claimer for the first time (a 30% winning angle from the barn).

3rd pick: #7 (Blinded vision) (5-1) - Debuting son of the speedy 'Shanfhai Bobby' cost $190,000 and debuts for a $50,000 claiming price. Colt worked a near bullet half-mile here July 12 and he must be left in the mix.

4th pick: #3 (Fortune Cookie) (6-1) - Home bred by 'City Zip' is dropping into a claimer, shortens up in distance, and is racing on the dirt for the first time. He has a bit of early speed and should be competitive against this weaker group.
