Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (BODEFECTA) (2-1) - A $100K son of 'Bodemeister', he's finished second, beaten a 'neck' in his last pair here at this level. They were his first two starts on the grass and he'll be very tough in this spot.
2nd pick: #4 (Knowyouroptions) (9-2) - He rallied to finish third, 1.5 lengths in back of 'Bodefecta' here at this level and distance Aug. 28. It was his second start back following a four month layoff, his first on the grass, and a career best in nine lifetime attempts. An obvious contender.
3rd pick: #3 (High Priority) (8-1) - A NEW gelding, he's stretching out in distance and is racing on the grass, both for the first time. He's raced evenly in all three dirt sprints and has earned figures that make him a threat if he handles the new surface.
4th pick: #7 (I R the Duke) (6-1) - Another trying the grass for the first time, he's been competitive in all three starts on the dirt at Prairie Meadows. Improving sort has positive two-turn experience and should be involved from gate-to-wire.
