Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (STAR EXPRESS) (7-2) - 'Long winded' type is stretching out a bit after three straight good efforts at this level going shorter. In shape and is spotted to win by veteran Gary Sherlock.
2nd pick: #5 (He's a Knockout) (5-2) - He was never involved Aug 27 at Del Mar after being very keyed up both in the paddock and right before the break. Competitive in three straight prior to that, and he's win candidate if on his best behavior.
3rd pick: #3 (Money Makin Mike) (4-1) - Even-paced type has had very wide trips in his last pair at Del Mar. The tag and trip fit and he's dropping some weight with apprentice Lindsay aboard. In the mix.
4th pick: #8 (Woodstock Memory) (20-1) - Longshot has early speed and is stretching out in distance. Can lead them a long ways at a very big price.
