Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (MONEY MAKIN MIKE) (5-2) - Lightly-raced colt was scratched recently to await this spot. On the sidelines since Oct 15, he finished a pace-setting second that day at Los Alamitos when facing tougher going a mile. Working fast for his return, trainer Doug O'Neill drops him 50% in claiming price and is adding blinkers. Can take this if ready.
2nd pick: #1 (He's a Knockout) (6-1) - Another that's lightly-raced, he takes the same drop as 'Money Makin Mike' and is switching from turf to dirt. Three-year-old showed early speed before tiring last out and is clearly improving. He has the rail and a recent solid work going six furlongs June 17.
3rd pick: #4 (Big Discovery) (3-1) - Veteran had some promise earlier in his career but has regressed since coming off a 3.5 month layoff Jan 15. Fits with his best and 4-year-old is racing first off a positive trainer change to Tim Yakteen following a claim May 29. New barn is adding both blinkers and leading jockey Rafael Bejarano.
4th pick: #5 (Alston) (4-1) - He's been competitive in three of four starts since switching to the barn of Scott Hansen. Speed/stalker fits at the tag and trip and must be left in the mix.
