Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (SAN GIORGIO) (3-1) - Colt ships from Golden Gate Fields where he finished third when debuting on the Tapeta surface going 4.5 furlongs June 2. He's worked fast since shipping here, as Lasix added and gets a slight edge.

2nd pick: #8 (Asaltante) (5-1) - He showed fine early speed before tiring facing tougher here July 15. He's worked since, drops down, and his trainer (Todd Fincher) has won with 9-of-28 (32%) second-time starters since the beginning of 2017.

3rd pick: #7 (Just Hit Play) (7-2) - Owned/trained by Steve Miyadi, gelding tired after dueling for the lead when debuting at Los Alamitos July 15. Bet down to 5-2 that afternoon, he should be in this with the normal second out improvement.
