Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (DIVERSIFY) (6-5) - Multiple G1 winner is fast from the gate and is seeking a repeat in this rich contest. He's won 6-of-8 at Belmont and finished second in his two defeats. Working fast, he's clearly the horse to catch.
2nd pick: #3 (Mendelssohn) (7-2) - Son of 'Scat Daddy' cost a cool $3,000,000 and enters off a second place finish in the G1 Travers Stakes Aug. 25 at Saratoga. He takes on older rivals but is clearly getting a feeling for the dirt.
3rd pick: #4 (Patch) (15-1) - No-speed type from the Pletcher barn generally makes a late move but will need some pace help for anything more than a minor award.
4th pick: #1 (Carlino) (20-1) - Another without much speed, 4yo moves way up in class after defeating weaker at Saratoga Aug. 26. He has a ground-saving post and may grab a share at a big price with a patient ride.
