Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (SILENT ALARM) (2-1) - NEW gelding also races with blinkers on. Well backed when debuting at this level June 16 at Santa Anita, he pressed the pace while and held to finish third. He's worked four times since and will be tough in this spot.

2nd pick: #5 (Handsome John) (7-2) - He tired after racing close up when debuting June 15 at Santa Anita facing tougher. Trainer Doug O'Neill has worked him four times since and gives him a big drop in class.

3rd pick: #8 (Eighty Proof) (8-1) - One of four making their debuts, he's bred for speed and at last year's meet trainer Mick Ruiz sent out a pair of winning 'firsters'. Longshot has a chance if ready.
