Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (PAZMEIFUCAN) (9-5) - Santa Anita shipper is racing as a NEW gelding and is dropping a bit in class. Speedy sort is breaking just off the rail in this abbreviated sprint (five furlongs) and has a bit of a class edge on this group.
2nd pick: #5 (Sterling Wager) (5-2) - He's one of two entered by trainer Kelly Castenada and the pair race uncoupled. He's stretching out in distance and moving up a bit in class. He's won five of his last nine racing on the smaller night surface here, but has proven adept at this trip in the past.
3rd pick: #1 (Tribal Flash) (8-1) - The second of the Castenada pair, longshot moves to the rail while stretching out in distance. One-run type should sit a good trip and is a threat down the stretch at a big price.
4th pick: #3 (Councilman) (5-1) - Consistent gelding is another that's trying a longer distance. He's done well at this trip in the past and stalker must be left in the mix.
