Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (CONQUEST SMARTEE) (8-5) - Well bred colt has finished 3rd here in his last pair here at this distance against a bit tougher. One-run type drops to a new low and trainer John Sadler has him shedding 7 lbs with apprentice Figueroa aboard.

2nd pick: #6 (Upo) (7-2) - Lightly-raced 3-year-old is dropping into a claimer and is racing on the grass, both for the first time. Gelding has early speed, is bred to like the surface switch, and he gets a big rider upgrade to Flavien Prat.

3rd pick: #8 (Harliss) (8-1) - Long shot has the best early speed but has tired in his latest pair while finishing behind 'Conquest Smartee' in both. Colt will be sent hard from his outside post and will take them as far as he can.
