Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (SCARF IT DOWN) (3-1) - Veteran checked in third of eight, missing by a length going 6 furlongs at this level Aug. 25 at Saratoga. He runs first off a Gary Gullo claim (19%) and one run type should get a quick pace to close into. The top selection, but make sure you box your bets in this contest.
2nd pick: #1 (Mo Diddley) (7-2) - He's the main speed and is dropping down from facing $25K state bred claimers to run against $16,000 'open' company. 4yo gelding by 'Uncle Mo' has the rail, and is serious threat to lead this group from gate-to-wire.
3rd pick: #6 (Javelin) (12-1) - A 6yo by 'Mineshaft', he's finished fourth without threatening in his last pair following two straight solid second-place finishes here. Veteran has a fine record at this distance 6-2-2-0, and think he'll be competitive at a big price.
4th pick: #7 (Indian Guide) (9-2) - He rallied from far back to finish second, beaten a length at this level going 6 furlongs Aug. 25 at Saratoga. Competitive in all three local appearances, a fast/and or contested pace would help his late running style out.
