Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (RECRUTING READY) (9-5) - This veteran stakes sprinter ships from Kentucky where he was a winner by just under four lengths in a six-furlong stakes at Churchill Downs Nov. 2. A winner of $800,000, 5yo speedster has won here in the past and has gone 15-7-2-2 at this trip along the way. He gets top billing.
2nd pick: #7 (Happy Farm) (9-2) - A 5yo gelding by 'Ghostzapper,' he's moving up into a stakes seeking his fourth win in a row. Speed/stalker has stepped it up since being claimed by Jay Servis for $30K here last March and is a win candidate today.
3rd pick: #5 (Wonderful Light) (6-1) - Consistent sprinter is 7-4-1-2 at this distance and is working fast locally for his first since finishing 3rd in a seven-furlong stakes at Laurel Sept. 28. He's gone 4-2-1-1 since returning from a long layoff July 4 and must be left in the mix today.
