Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (SWEET DEAL) (5-1) - Filly drops down a bit after a useful debut here Dec. 1. Grey filly tired while racing wide on a sloppy surface that day and it's noted that she received betting support. She meets a weak group and has a good shot at a square price.
2nd pick: #3 (Divine Miss Grey) (2-1) - The morning line favorite, New York shipper has some changes for this attempt. $100K purchase drops into a claimer, moves from grass to dirt, and shortens up in distance. She just missed at this trip when debuting Oct. 23 at Belmont and is an obvious win candidate.
3rd pick: #4 (Ruth's Lotus) (5-1) - One of two making their debuts, she's by the legendary 'City Zip.' Bred for speed, she's working above average on the deep surface at Payson Park and need not be anything special to factor against this field.
