Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #8 (MAGIC ON TAP) (2-1) - Home bred son of 'Tapit' is working fast for his first attempt and is from the barn of Bob Baffert (38% first out). Colt enters off a 6 furlong drill in 1:12.80 Aug. 27 and looks well prepared.

2nd pick: #1 (Kneedeepinsnow) (6-1) - $130K son of Flatter' makes his first start off of some sharp local drills. A bullet 5/8ths from the gate Aug. 15 indicates speed is present and he's a threat if he runs to those a.m. works.

3rd pick: #2 (Admiral Brown) (5-1) - Another debuting colt and he's also from the Baffert barn. Training both steadily and above average, son of 'Malibu Moon' must be left in the mix.

4th pick: #7 (Extra Hope) (4-1) - Colt rallied strongly to miss by a 1/2 length when debuting here at odds of 19-1 Aug. 4. He received a quick and contested pace to close into that afternoon and needs to prove it wasn't just a fluke. Think he's beatable at a short price.
