Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (SET ME UP) (5-2) - Much improved in his last pair, gelding has finished a close up third in two straight at this level since coming off an eight month layof Aug. 11. He has the rail and should like this nine furlong trip.
2nd pick: #4 (Mr. Massena) (3-1) - Competitive in all three starts since dropping down to this level, he's finished second in two of those. Speed/stalker was a length in back of 'Set Me Up' Aug. 11 and a 'head' in front of him Sept. 15. A strong win candidate.
3rd pick: #7 (Kierland) (8-1) - Longshot rallied while wide last out in his first off a Jorge Abreu claim. He's worked fast since and think this 3-year-old will be competitive at a big price.
4th pick: #3 (Wondermeister) (12-1) - Another longshot, he's the type that never tires and he should like this nine furlong distance. Stretch threat at a very big price.
