Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (TAKE IT EASYPLEASE) (5-2) - Tommy Town home bred has been competitive in five straight starts and enters off a pair of back-to-back second place finishes at this tag. Stalker draws a nice post for her style and this trip, with the clear speed to her inside. Gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #4 (Kiss My Face) (3-1) - Very fast from the gate, she set a quick pace at this tag and trip Oct 23 at Santa Anita. Four-year-old tired late to check in fourth that day in what was her first start in almost two months. A strong win candidate.
3rd pick: #8 (Catalina Bonita) (4-1) - No-speed type is nearing her 5th birthday and what you see is what you get. She's gone 5-0-2-1 at this level since mid-July and generally improves her position during the stretch run. In this spot she'll need a fast/and or contested pace for anything more than a minor award.
4th pick: #7 (City Bench) (5-1) - Well bet when debuting against tougher this past February, home bred was away slowly and raced evenly once in stride. Working nicely for her return, daughter of 'Benchmark' is a threat if ready.
