Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (PRINCE OF PHAROAHS) (7-2) - A home bred son of 'American Pharoah,' he raced evenly when debuting here in a six-furlong grass contest Sept. 20. Trainer Linda Rice, 29% second time out, switches him to the dirt (16%) while stretching him out in distance (28%).
2nd pick: #6 (Jack of Clubs) (3-1) - This grey son of 'Curlin' ships from Monmouth where he tired to finish 4th after setting a pressured pace when debuting there in a two-turn event Sept. 22. Colt is dangerous in this spot.
3rd pick: #2 (Tapizearance) (5-2) - Even paced gelding stretches out beyond six furlongs following a 2nd and 3rd pace finish sprinting at this level. He enters off a bullet three-furlong work Oct. 11 and an 'ice cold' barn (Gary Contessa) reaches out to Irad Ortiz, Jr. for this attempt.
