Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (BUNDESLIGA) (3-1) - Lightly raced, he's improving, and is shortening up following a 3rd place finish at Los Al Sept. 10th. Working fast since, trainer Doug O'Neill has him racing without blinkers for the first time.
2nd pick: #7 (Big Bad John) (9-5) - The morning line favorite, he's been sharp in two straight at this tag. Stalker missed by a 1/2-length going a mile at Los Alamitos Oct. 9th, and is an obvious win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (Alley Boss) (9-2) - Improving and lightly raced, he finished 4th at this tag going six furlongs at Los Al Sept. 15th. He's worked three times since and should be involved from gate-to-wire.
4th pick: #5 (Lucky Patrick) (20-1) - Longshot is racing third back from a long layoff and is racing himself into shape. May grab a small slice at a big price.
