Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (SPEEDY FELLAR) (4-1) - Colt raced wide before rallying to finish 3rd here at this level and distance Nov. 8. It was a nice step forward off his debut, and it came with a stretch out off a six-furlong first attempt. He gets a slight edge in a competitive contest.
2nd pick: #7 (Orbatron) (5-2) - This son of Derby winner 'Orb' had some serious traffic issues when he finished 4th, a 1/2 lengths behind 'Speedy Fellar,' here Nov. 8. He's from the barn of leading trainer Steve Asmussen and a win candidate.
3rd pick: #5 (Ghost Rocket) (10-1) - Longshot was bet down to 7-2 when debuting in a sprint here Oct. 27. $130,000 son of 'Ghoatzapper' raced both wide and evenly when checking in 5th of 11, beaten 7.5 lengths. It was a useful first appearance, and he's worked fast three times since then.
4th pick: #2 (Catdaddy) (9-5) - Speedy colt has finished 2nd here in two straight at this level and distance. Beaten only a 'head' in each, son of 'Munnings' comes off a career best figure and is a major player, but at a short price.
