Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (COLLECTED) (3-1) - An uncoupled barn-mate of 'Arrowgate', this talented colt has won 7-of-10 overall and is a perfect 3-for-3 this year. Speed/stalker has earned triple digit figures in each, is working very fast, and the rail is his for the taking. Has a big shot at upsetting his more famous stable mate in this spot.

2nd pick: #8 (Arrowgate) (6-5) - Formerly the best horse in the world, $17,000,000 earner raced very poorly here July 22. It was his first back in No. America since winning the $10M Dubai World Cup (Group 1) March 25. Working fast since, look for a big rebound today. An obvious win candidate.

3rd pick: #3 (Accelerate) (7-2) - He ran a career best when winning here July 22. Speed/stalker was far in front of 'Arrowgate' at every call and is a perfect 3-for-3 on the Del Mar dirt. Working fast and he should be involved from gate-to-wire.
