Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #11 (LEPRINO) (2-1) - He missed by a 'nose' here at this $20K tag going seven furlongs Aug. 9. Claimed that day by Manny Ortiz, he has him back at that same level, draws a good post, and leading rider Rispoli takes the mount.
2nd pick: #9 (Babael) (7-2) - He tired here for twice this price Aug. 7, which was his first race in almost a year. Competitive several times facing tougher before the long layoff, he takes a big drop and is dangerous today.
3rd pick: #12 (Prince Ricky) (15-1) - Longshot finished far behind 'Leprino' last out after pressing a quick pace. He's dropping eight pounds, draws a good post, and I think he can be in this from gate-to-wire at a big price.
4th pick: #2 (Rossman) (8-1) - He recovered after a slow break to miss by 1.5 lengths facing winners here on Aug. 16. This stalker is back in with maidens and has been competitive in three straight, doing so at this tag.
5th pick: #10 (Time to Testify) (6-1) - On the sidelines since Feb. 15, he's switching from turf to dirt, cuts back in distance, and is taking a big drop. Training above average, he's capable of getting a share if ready.
