Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (RESTLESS RIDER) (7-2) - Lasix is added to the filly who rallied to finish second in Saratoga's G1 Spinaway Stakes going 7 furlongs Sept. 1. Daughter of 'Distorted Humor' breezed a bullet 5 furlongs here Sept. 22 and is set up nicely by trainer Ken McPeek for her first attempt at a two-turn distance.

2nd pick: #8 (Lady T N T) (3-1) - Very fast from the gate she's won two in a row and was a very impressive winner going 6 furlongs at Churchill Downs facing weaker Sept. 20. She sold for $335,000 as a 2yo in training this past March and she's a serious win candidate as the daughter of 'Justin Philip' stretches out in distance.

3rd pick: #9 (Catherinethegreat) (4-1) - Filly has been freshened up since she ran poorly when finishing 12 lengths behind 'Restless Rider' at Saratoga Sept. 1. An easy winner of her previous pair and grey Florida bred earned very high figures in both. Working very fast at Churchill and is in the win mix.

4th pick: #1 (Reflect) (12-1) - Longshot raced very wide when checking in about 3 lengths in back of 'Restless Rider' and 7 in front of 'Catherinethegreat' Sept. 1 at Saratoga. Stalker has a ground-saving post and is a late threat at a big price.
