Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (WOODIE B AWESOME) (7-2) - He's rallied to be competitive in both starts at this tag and trip during the Del Mar meet. He had poor outside post in each and had to race 6-7 wide turning for home. He draws a better starting slot and the longer stretch here gives him the edge.
2nd pick: #3 (Bundesliga) (12-1) - Longshot was competitive whsn debuting June 19 at santa Anita. Claimed that afternoon by Doug O'Neill for this $20K tag, he's raced evenly in his first pair of the barn switch. Working fast locally, he has a solid shot in an overall weak field.
3rd pick: #6 (Coach Q) (5-2) - Trainer Bob Baffert is a perfect three-for-three in the first two days at this meet. He's dropping this NEW gelding way down in class and $575K 3yo by 'Super Saver' is an obvious threat at a short price. He's broken poorly in three straight, but is a win candidate in a group where many will be gasping for air and backing up during the stretch run.
