Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (THUNDER BASIN) (9-5) - He's dropping a bit in class following a sharp win at Del Mar Aug. 27th. He has the rail, back class, and should take another with a repeat of his latest effort.
2nd pick: #8 (Changing Karma) (4-1) - Locally based veteran has nine lifetime wins and enters off a 3rd place finish here facing a bit tougher Sept. 17th. Stalker draws a good post and is a factor with his best.
3rd pick: #7 (Swiss Cheese) (3-1) - Stretch runner is consistent (10-3-3-1) and loves this distance (4-2-2-0). In shape, and he'll be finishing fast on the long local stretch.
4th pick: #5 (H R Express) (20-1) - Longshot is dropping in class and shortening up in distance. May hold down share at a big price in the same race exotic wagers.
