Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (MAJORDOMO) (5-1) - NEW gelding set a pressured pace before tiring when debuting at this tag going 5.5 furlongs at Del Mar Aug. 23. He enters off a near bullet 4-furlong gate work at Santa Anita Dec. 4 and has talented apprentice Evin Roman aboard.
2nd pick: #10 (Thankful Every Day) (4-1) - Colt set a quick pace before tiring to check in a distant third when facing tougher at Del Mar Nov. 23. It was a useful effort and was his first race in just over a year. Win candidate in this spot.
3rd pick: #4 (Beyond Wonderful) (5-1) - Blinkers go on gelding who tired at this tag Nov. 17 at Del Mar. It was his first back off a two month freshening and he worked a bullet 3 furlongs here Nov. 29. Must be left in the mix.
4th pick: #5 (Eldaafirst) (7-2) - $55K purchase raced well when debuting facing tougher at Del Mar back in Nov. of 2016. Colt received betting support that day and has some fine local works showing for his return. Dangerous if ready.
