Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (BOB LE BEAU) (8-5) - The morning line favorite, he's won three of his last four including the New York Turf Writers Cup (G1) at Saratoga Aug 27. Irish import is in top form and should beat these with a mistake free trip.
2nd pick: #6 (Syros) (5-1) - The main speed whenever he runs, gelding is one of two entered by trainer Jack Fisher and the pair race uncoupled. He was sub par last out at Saratoga and was far back of 'Bob Le Beau' at the finish. Very consistent and competitive prior to that and he's a threat on the front end.
3rd pick: #7 (Diplomat) (4-1) - He races first off a rare claim of a jump horse and it came out of a winning race at Saratoga facing a solid field. He has more speed than most and must be left in the mix.
4th pick: #4 (Dawalan) (6-1) - French import is one of two running for trainer Cyril Murphy and they race as separate betting interests. This is his first start in North America and grey gelding showed some talent when racing in England.
