Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (FAST AS CASS) (5-2) - This grey gelding rallied while wide to miss by a 'neck' at this tag and trip Sept. 6 at Los Alamitos. Claimed that day by Lorenzo Ruiz, he won with 4 of 10 (40%) off that transaction in 2019 and this 4yo has done well here in the past.
2nd pick: #1 (Union Station) (2-1) - Stretch runner has been competitive in two straight and was just under a length in back of 'Fast As Cass' going a mile Nov. 14 at Del Mar. He has a ground-saving post and should be closing fastest of hese in the final furlong.
3rd pick: #5 (Norski) (6-1) - The probable speed in this small field, he's stretching out in distance and is facing winners both for the first time. 4yo broke his maiden going 6 furlongs at Los Alamitos for a $20K tag Dec. 14 and is nicely spotted today by owner/trainer Hector Palma. In the mix.
