Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (OTTO) (4-1) - Lightly-raced colt ships from Monmouth where he's finished second in both starts. Strong finisher drops for his NYRA debut and veteran Joe Bravo is back on the re-ride. He can win this if able to avoid any traffic issues in this large field.

2nd pick: #10 (Classy O'Prado) (8-1) - Longshot has no early speed but fits on figures and is dropping in class. He'll probably get a wide trip from this post, but is still dangerous at a big price.

3rd pick: #11 (Caldera) (5-2) - Listed as the morning line favorite, he's cutting back in distance and is dropping in class. Colt has been competitive facing tougher in the past and is an obvious contender with leading rider Irad Ortiz Jr. aboard.

4th pick: #3 (Know Your Customer) (6-1) - Trainer Chad Brown drops this $170K purchase in for a $40,000 claiming price. He showed some ability in his first pair and this particular drop is a a strong 43% winning move by Brown.

5th pick: #7 (Madeyourpoint) (15-1) - Longshot is well bred and lightly raced. He's racing first off an Abby Adsit claim (12%) and is doing so as a NEW gelding and with blinkers on. May grab a share at a big price.
