Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (SPANISH BAY) (4-1) - Godolphin home bred by 'Tapit' takes a huge drop and has Lasix administered for this attempt. He's shown good early speed facing much tougher and should beat these on the big reduction in class.
2nd pick: #9 (Astonishing Tweet) (3-1) - Bet down to 2-1 favoritism when debuting Nov. 3 at Santa Anita, he tired after dueling for the lead from between horses. He drops in half for a strong second out barn Mike McCarthy (31%).
3rd pick: #4 (Iron Curtain) (6-1) - Stalker finished a close up 3rd at this level sprinting at Santa Anita Oct. 8. Freshened up since, he's capable of impacting with his normal effort.
4th pick: #2 (Sought Bai) (7-2) - Gelding broke on top, set a fast pace, then tired to finish 2nd here at this level Nov. 11. He fits, is positioned just off the inside, and must be left in the mix.
