Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (PURE SPRING) (5-2) - Well backed in both starts facing tougher, he ran evenly while finishing 5th of 10, beaten seven lengths facing Pa. bred special weights Sept. 28th. He's worked since, runs with blinkers on, and trainer Ed Colletti, Jr. drops him into a claimer for the first time. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #9 (Combee) (10-1) - Longshot has some speed and is dropping a bit in class. Grey colt had some traffic issues last out, and it's apprentice Perez off and veteran C.C. Lopez on. Can factor at a big price.
3rd pick: #8 (M J's Knight) (8-1) - Lasix is added after colt chased and tired while racing wide debuting here facing a bit tougher Oct. 5th. Home bred took some betting action that day and must be left in the mix.
4th pick: #4 (Search for Jazz) (15-1) - Longshot has raced evenly in both starts since dropping into claimers. Colt seems to be improving and can grab a share of this at a big price with a small step forward.
