Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (PRIMO RIVERA) (7-5) - The morning line favorite, he finished a pace-setting second here at this tag and trip Dec. 4. Well bred gelding earned a career best figure in his synthetic surface debut that day and he'll be tough in this spot.
2nd pick: #1 (Air Raid) (5-1) - Lightly-raced gelding rallied while wide to finish third, almost three lengths in back of 'Primo Rivera' here Dec. 4. It was his second start back off a 4.5 month layoff and he draws a ground saving post. Dangerous with any move forward.
3rd pick: #4 (Mighty Sky) (6-1) - He has absolutely no early speed and was far back of both 'Primo Rivera' and 'Air Raid' here Dec. 4. Long time maiden can 'run all day' and may grab a share with a late rally. A fast and/or contested pace would enhance his chances.
4th pick: #2 (Big Brown Stevens) (6-1) - Another with no early speed, he's not a win candidate, but could grab a minor award at a square price.
