Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (HAILEY RACHELE) (8-5) - The probable favorite, speed/stalker has been competitive in three of four career starts. Capable of running a :45 and change half-mile, and that is enough to beat this below average group for the level.

2nd pick: #1 (Bella Siera) (12-1) - Longshot tired badly here going a mile on the turf Oct. 14 in her first back off almost a two-month break. She had finished behind "Hailey Rachele' in her previous pair of dirt sprints, but both were under three lengths. Stretch runner has the rail and is dangerous at a big price.

3rd pick: #8 (Warm It Up) (7-2) - 3yo has been competitive in four of her five starts. Home bred was in back of both 'Hailey Rachele' and 'Bella Sierra' Sept. 15, but was only a 1/2-length behind 'Bella' that afternoon. Factors today.
