Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (SIR EDDIE ) (2-1) - He finished 4th here a week ago at this level going 6.5 furlongs on the grass. Speed/stalker moves to the dirt for only the second time, but gets top billing if he holds and can convert his turf form to the main track.

2nd pick: #3 (Air Jockey) (7-2) - Freshened up since Aug. 18, this stretch runner has rallied to finish 3rd at this level in two of three dirt sprints. Home bred has a fine series of works on view and is a late threat.

3rd pick: #7 (Sidepocket Action) (4-1) - Lightly raced 4yo has been on the sidelines since late April. He's traded decisions with 'Sir Eddie' in his first pair and is working well above average for his return. Home bred can factor if ready.

4th pick: #4 (Big Barrel) (5-2) - 3yo rallied to finish when debuting here in a sprint facing weaker June 16. Moved up to this level and switched to the grass while going a mile July 27 at Del Mar, he tired badly after racing close up. Another that's working above average, and he must be left in the mix.
