Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (JONNY'S CHOICE) (5-2) - Consistent veteran is racing second off a Jeff Mullins claim and is dropping down. Speed/stalker moves from turf to dirt and is at his favorite distance (6-2-2-2). Gets the edge.
2nd pick: #3 (Rough Passage) (6-1) - Once classier type is dropping in half and is racing second back off a two-month break. Trainer Kristin Mulhall brings him back in nine days, and this gelding is a strong threat to go gate-to-wire.
3rd pick: #2 (Lucky Views) (4-1) - He's stretching out in distance after a wide and even 4th place finish here going seven furlongs Aug. 5th. It was his first race in 3.5 months, and he's a factor with his best.
4th pick: #8 (Roman Tizzy) (3-1) - His outside post and lack of speed work against him. However, he does have back class and is a stretch threat if the pace is fast and/or contested.
