Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (ZATTER) (3-1) - One of two entered by trainer Bob Baffert and the pair race uncoupled. Sharp in both starts, son of 'Midnight Lute' has a speed/stalking style, is working fast, and has the rail. Gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #4 (Bolt d'Oro) (5-2) - Son of 'Medaglia d'Oro' cost $630K as a Saratoga Sales Yearling in Aug. of 2016. He's won both starts including almost a length win over 'Zatter" in the 7 furlong Del Mar Futurity (G1) Sept. 4. Away slowly in each, he's an obvious win candidate at this longer distance.
3rd pick: #8 (Solomini) (4-1) - The second of the Baffert pair, he was bet heavily when debuting going 6.5 furlongs Sept. 2 at Del Mar. Colt reported home by almost two lengths in good time and is working fast for this longer attempt.
4th pick: #7 (Encumbered) (6-1) - He's won two in a row on the grass including a $100K stakes Sept. 3 at Del Mar. A late threat if he can transfer his turf form to the dirt.
