Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #9 (ALASKAN CRUISE) (3-1) - Gelding enters off a second-place finish here at this tag and distance July 16. A career best, it was his second back from a three month break and first at this claiming price.
2nd pick: #8 (Rideo) (7-2) - New gelding is racing first off a Doug O'Neill claim (20%). Working fast at Los Alamitos since the barn switch, lightly-raced 3-year-old is a strong win candidate.
3rd pick: #7 (Woodstock Memory) (10-1) - Longshot races first of a Shelbe Ruis claim. Small barn does good work from limited opportunities and this gelding showed some ability last out. Price play.
4th pick: #5 (Yet Another Nate) (6-1) - He has early speed and is lightly-raced. Tommy Town home bred is working fast and may be in this a long ways at a square price.
5th pick: #4 (Little Mustard) (5-1) - He's finished second in three of his last four starts, all at or around this tag. Flavien Prat is back aboard following a one race absence and this gelding must be left in the mix.
