Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (GRAVITATING) (3-1) - Freshened up since July 26 gelding is racing first off a Rudy Rodriguez claim ( a 30% winning angle). The 3yo has been sub-par in his last pair following 4-of-5 competitive starts to begin his career. The distance is fine and he has a positive 'off' track experience.
2nd pick: #9 (Uncle Larry) (2-1) - The morning line favorite, trainer Todd Pletcher is dropping him into a career soft spot. Even-paced type draws a fine outside post and is an obvious win candidate
3rd pick: #2 (Curlin's New Moon) (4-1) - NEW gelding has been freshened up since July 28 at Saratoga. He's finished second and 3rd in both previous starts at this $2K tag and 3yo breezed a bullet 5 furlongs here Sep 8. Must be left in the win mix.
4th pick: #1 (Metaphorical) (6-1) - Speedy sort races first off a Ray Handal claim (17%) and he stretches him out in distance. Expect this gelding to sprint to the early lead and take them as far as he can.
