Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (EARRING) (2-1) - Filly was bred in Kentucky but spent her 3yo season racing in Ireland. Before coming back to the states last year, she just missed in a Group 2 contest July 16. Stalker has been competitive in four of six on the East Coast and makes her California debut in this spot. Working fast and she'll be tough to beat.
2nd pick: #4 (Laseen) (4-1) - Irish bred mare has been sharp in her last three starts when acing at this level. She missed by a 'neck' Sept. 4 at Del Mar a contest where she had some serious traffic issues. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #1 (Cordiality) (5-2) - Speedy filly has been razor sharp in all three starts since coming back from nine months on the sidelines June 24. She's moving up in class, but has the best early speed and is breaking from the rail. Must be left in the mix.
