Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (KID PERFECT) (8-1) - Longshot drops in class after showing good early speed before tiring facing tougher Aug 27 at Saratoga. He's worked well since, draws a fine post at this 6.5 furlong trip, and this particular drop is a 21% winning angle for trainer Ken McPeek.
2nd pick: #2 (Port More) (2-1) - Colt is another dropping into claimers for the first time. Colt has shown some talent in his first pair at Saratoga and he faced better rivals in each.
3rd pick: #5 (Mabrouk) (4-1) - Gelding had a rough trip when debuting at this tag on a sloppy surface Aug 1 at Saratoga. He's worked five times since, has blinkers added, and Javier Castellano is aboard for this attempt.
4th pick: #6 (Outstanding Gio) (6-1) - He has early speed and has had to race wide in his first pair after breaking from outside posts. Generazio home bred draws better in this smaller group and should be involved from gate to wire at a square price.
