Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (FLOWMOTION) (5-1) - Veteran made a strong middle move while wide before tiring late to check in 4th of 12, beaten just over three lengths here at this tag Nov. 29. Working steadily for his return, he has a better post today, and his trainer, Jane Cibelli, is having a strong meet eight of 38 (21%).
2nd pick: #3 (Till the End) (4-1) - He rallied from close range to score by almost a length at this tag and trip last out. Old timer has a flexible style, and most all his best racing has been done on the local grass.
3rd pick: #8 (Reflected Star) (6-1) - Once classier type raced evenly when beaten 3.5 lengths by 'Till the End' at this tag and trip Nov. 29. It was his first race in 18 months and was his first off a Bob Falcone, Jr. claim. He could go in either directions in this spot, but is capable if he just needed that outing off the long layoff.
4th pick: #7 (Hot and Heavy) (10-1) - Cheaper sort has been freshened up since the Fall when he was sharp in three straight. He has more early speed than most, is from a capable barn, and may be in this from gate-to-wire at a square price.
