Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (DATA CENTRAL) (7-2) - Colt has been beaten only 2 lengths in all three starts since coming back from a 9.5-month layoff May 27. Latest saw him tire late to finish fourth here going 8.5 furlongs facing weaker July 18. He's dropping into a claimer for the first time and gets a slight edge.

2nd pick: #5 (Dignitaire) (10-1) - Nicely bred colt set a very quick and pressured pace before tiring here in the final furlong at this tag going a mile Aug. 4. Speed/stalker should be involved from gate-to-wire at a big price.

3rd pick: #2 (Indoctrination) (3-1) - Irish import has been on the sidelines since Jan. 13 at Santa Anita. Speed/stalker missed by a 'neck' last October at this distance facing tougher and is an obvious win candidate if ready.

4th pick: #4 (King Caymus) (12-1) - Longshot is dropping into a claimer for the first 4yo time, has blinkers added, and has four solid works showing since an even local effort July 18. Four-year-old by 'Kitten's Joy' may grab a share at a very big price.
