Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (ROOSEVELT) (3-1) - $350,000 purchase has been on the sidelines since his debut Sept. 4 at Del Mar. Favored that afternoon, he was away slowly and bounced around soon after. Training nicely for his return and gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #2 (Microrithms) (2-1) - Debuting colt is from the Baffert barn (22% first out). He's working fast and is an obvious win candidate if he runs to his morning drills.
3rd pick: #5 (Six Cider) (5-1) - Away since Aug. 26 at Del Mar, he raced evenly that day while finishing a non-threatening fourth. Training above average, this $210,000 purchase is from the Hollendorfer barn and has leading rider Flavien Prat aboard.
