Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (VANTASTIC) (5-2) - Speed/stalker is stretching out in distance after breaking his maiden going 6.5 furlongs Oct. 20 at Santa Anita in his grass debut. He's worked fast since, and it's noted that trainer Peter Eurton has Mike Smith aboard for this stakes attempt.

2nd pick: #6 (Flyin Scotsman) (2-1) - Calumet home bred rallied from close range to break his maiden at this distance Sept. 29 at Santa Anita. It was a big move forward off his sprint debut here Aug. 8, and he's working fast with Flavien Prat aboard for the first time today.

3rd pick: #2 (Rijeka ) (7-2) - This Irish import broke his maiden here at this distance in his U.S. debut Aug. 12. He then tired here in a $100K stakes Sept. 2 before a 3rd place finish in another $100G event Oct. 8 at Santa Anita. Given an eight-week break, he must be left in the mix.
