Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (BIZWHACKS) (9-2) - Filly has finished 2nd in three of five starts, the latest coming here going a mile on the grass Nov. 10. Sharp in two of three dirt sprints, she's working well, has the rail, and I think she can take this at a square price.
2nd pick: #2 (Claudelle) (4-1) - Sharp in all three attempts, she's finished 2nd twice sprinting, and last out checked in 3rd going a mile. Daughter of 'Candy Ride' fits and is in the win mix.
3rd pick: #9 (Qahira) (3-1) - It's hard to look past any debuting runner from the Baffert barn. Filly sold for $375,000 this past spring as a 2yo in training and has the normal fast workouts from Baffert (40% first out).
4th pick: #10 (Slewgoodtobetrue) (7-2) - She rallied from far back to finish 2nd when debuting at this level and distance Oct. 27 at Santa Anita. She draws a tough outside post, but it's noted that Mike Smith is aboard for this attempt.
