Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (PROPOSITION JOE) (7-2) - Colt has early speed and finished a pace-setting fourth here at this level going a mile Dec 7. It was his first since Sept 23 and he should move forward as he cuts back in distance.
2nd pick: #2 (Frost Or Frippery) (8-5) - He has a speed/stalking style, back class, and moves from dirt to 'poly' and cuts back in distance. From a capable barn (Bill Connelly) and a win candidate.
3rd pick: #7 (Stay On Shore) (4-1) - Un-raced since Oct 26, NEW gelding moves up in class and moves from dirt to the all-weather surface. He's run well here in the past 4-0-1-2 and must be left in the mix.
4th pick: #3 (Shoot Craps) (20-1) - Longshot makes both his local and synthetic surface debut. He has early speed but has been in poor form lately. A factor with his best, and at a big price.
