Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (OH MAN) (3-1) - He has early speed and is dropping to a new low while switching back to the dirt, which he clearly prefers. He's racing himself back into shape following a 5.5-month layoff and is nicely spotted today.
2nd pick: #8 (Curly's Mark) (8-1) - He enters off a very wide and non-contending trip here at this level Jan. 12. It was his first race since June 21, and he most likely needed it for conditioning purposes. Price play.
3rd pick: #6 (Buck Duane) (20-1) - This huge longshot is cutting back in distance and has races in his past that make him a threat if repeatable. His recent form is very poor, but so is this field.
