Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #9 (READY AND RICH) (7-2) - Stalker has finished second in five straight sprints at this level and he's lost photos in his last three. Son of 'Super Saver' missed by a 'head' here going 7 furlongs Oct. 6, has worked fast since, shortens up an 1/8th of a mile, and his outside post is a plus.
2nd pick: #7 (Tapizar's Secret) (2-1) - Colt set a quick pace and held to finish second when debuting at Saratoga going 5 1/2 furlongs in an 'off the turf' contest Aug. 22. Working above average locally for this attempt, $100K purchase is an obvious win candidate.
3rd pick: #1 (Bundibunan) (12-1) - One of five making their debuts, longshot has been in steady training here since early August. Colt by 'Ghostzapper' has some quick a.m. moves showing, breaks from the rail, and trainer Ignacio Correas IV (16% first out) has Jose Ortiz riding.
4th pick: #2 (Ourbestfriend D L) (8-1) - Longshot has early speed and has finished close up in all three dirt sprints. He finished third of 12, beaten just over a length here at this level and distance Oct.13 and moves from the 11-post to the 2-slot. In the mix.
