Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (CONCORD JET) (7-2) - He's been competitive in three straigh when sprinting and enters off a 2nd place finish here at this tag going 6.5 furlongs Dec 29. Stalker shortens up a furlong, has a ground saving post, and he should receive a fast pace to close into.
2nd pick: #2 (Jen Go Unchained) (3-1) - The morning line favorite, he missed by just under a length at Del Mar Nov 30 at this distance for a $16K price tag. Lightly raced 4yo drops to a new low and is a strong win candidate.
3rd pick: #3 (Red Valor) (10-1) - Speedy sort is facing winners following a gate-to-wire maiden win by 2.5 lengths at this distance Dec 12 at Los Al for a $30K tag. Nicely spotted today and think he's a threat at a big price.
4th pick: #7 (Norski) (6-1) - A maiden winner sprinting at Los Al Dec 14, he tired at this level going a mile here in his follow up Jan 3. Back on a short turnaround, 4yo is sprinting again and fits well with his best.
