Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (BLAME THE GODS) (8-5) - She tired when facing tougher Nov. 8 in her first start in since March 1. Most likely in need of that effort, trainer Brian Lynch drops her way down in class, and had her breeze a bullet half-mile on the Palm Meadows turf course Nov. 22.
2nd pick: #2 (Truly) (5-2) - Lightly raced filly moves up a bit after missing by a 'head' for a $12.5K tag Oct. 18. Only her third start, it was her first since Feb. 7, and was a career best to date. Given a six-week break, this $120K daughter of 'Will Take Charge' is a threat with any further improvement.
3rd pick: #6 (Sudden Light) (9-2) - Filly moves back in with her own sex after a wide and even effort facing males Nov. 1. Even paced type is capable against this weak group, and trainer Pat Biancone won two races here yesterday on Opening Day of this long meet.
