Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (MAJESTIC HERO) (4-1) - Kentucky invader moves back to the turf where his best career effort has been. He finished 8th of 12, beaten just under six lengths facing tougher at Kentucky Downs Sept. 12. Not as sharp in his last pair on the dirt, he's worked fast at Payson Park Nov. 25, and trainer Bill Mott has Luis Saez aboard for this one.
2nd pick: #5 (Channeledbythewind) (5-2) - The morning line and probable favorite, he rallied to miss by a 1/2-length at this level going 7.5 furlongs Nov. 15. This speed/stalker should be involved every step.
3rd pick: #3 (Vijay) (15-1) - Longshot stretches out following a pair of even efforts at this level sprinting on the grass. Colt has a fine post, and I think he'll be competitive at a big price.
4th pick: #1 (Restart) (30-1) - Son of 'Mineshaft' takes a big drop in class while making his turf debut. Heavily bet when debuting Oct. 6, he tired after racing close up. His latest saw him never involved, but he broke poorly and raced wide that afternoon. He has the rail today and may grab a share at a huge price.
