Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (HAPPY FARM) (7-5) - Speedy sort has won two in a row facing cheaper and is moving up in class for this attempt. Latest victory came here in gate-to-wire style by almost 8 lengths going 6.5 furlongs for a $40K price tag Sept. 7. He'll be very tough in this spot.
2nd pick: #2 (Fuel the Bern) (2-1) - Very consistent veteran has finished second in two straight at this level. He did so Aug. 16 at Saratoga going 6 furlongs and again here at a 1/16th farther Sept. 14. He should be competitive with his normal effort.
3rd pick: #4 (Chateau) (5-2) - Another speedster, he's from the same barn (Jay Servis) as 'Happy Farm' and they race as separate betting interests. He's won four of six since Servis claimed him for $40K in late Sept. of 2018 and must be left in the mix.
