Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (HUFF'S UNTOUCHABLE) (7-2) - He's dropping back down following a wide and even effort here going 7.5 furlongs for a $20K tag Nov. 30. Four-year-old had finished 2nd in two straight prior to that, the latest coming here at this $10,000 claiming price Nov. 9. He faces a weak looking group and can break his maiden in this spot.

2nd pick: #2 (Chasing a Saint) (5-1) - He has a bit of speed and breaks just off the rail. Trainer Scott Gelner stretches him out in his third back from an 8 month layoff and he's adding blinkers. Three-year-old is dangerous if he gets an uncontested early advantage.

3rd pick: #3 (Scott's Song) (6-1) - Even-paced gelding finished fourth here at this level and distance Dec. 1 in his third start back off a pair of layoffs. He fits with these and is a late threat at a square price.

4th pick: #4 (Indulgences) (10-1) - NEW gelding has shown little in his first pair facing tougher. He's racing second back from a long layoff, is dropping into a claimer, and is stretching out in distance. If he has any ability it will show in this spot.

5th pick: #1 (Boston Bullet) (12-1) - Away since Jan. 29, he's dropping into a claimer for the first time. If ready, he could get a minor award at a big price.
