Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (DOWSE'S BEACH) (3-1) - Consistent grey gelding is cutting back in distance after finishing second here at this level going 7-furlongs Sept 23. Stalker is in carer best shape and gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #10 (Tripski) (12-1) - One of two entered by trainer Dave Jacobson and the pair race uncoupled. No-speed type is racing first off a claim by Jacobson (26%) and this strong finisher was only a 'head' behind 'Dowse's Beach' Aug 26 at Saratoga. Stretch threat.
3rd pick: #6 (Night Officer) (7-2) - Veteran ships back from Maryland where he finished second at Laurel in a pair of sprint stakes on the grass. Old timer has won three of six here on the turf in the past and must be left in the mix.
4th pick: #1 (Joe Franklin) (6-1) - The second of the Jacobson pair, speedy colt won his grass debut Sept 6 at Monmouth when facing weaker going 5.5-furlongs. A career best overall, 3-year-old draws the rail and should be involved from gate-to-wire.
