Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #8 (MARKET MAYHEM) (4-1) - Lightly-raced 4-year-old filly has been on the sidelines since finishing second at this level and distance Aug 12 at Canterbury Park. It was her first since an impressive maiden score here March 12. Stalker is from a capable barn (Val Lund) and worked a sharp local half-mile Nov 13.
2nd pick: #1 (Asdrubal) (3-1) - As is normal at this meet, trainer Bob Diodoro is leading the trainer's standings as he looks for his fourth consecutive title at Turf Paradise. This lightly-raced filly rallied to check in second at this level here Nov 6. It was her first race in two months and earned her a carer best figure. An obvious contender.
3rd pick: #2 (Gold'ncitizen) (7-2) - She has a fine overall record on the dirt 14-1-6-4 and stretch runner enters in shape. She ran third going longer on the grass in her local debut Oct 23. Back in a dirt sprint, filly has gone 8-0-3-3 at this trip in the past.
4th pick: #5 (Pass On Command) (9-2) - On the sidelines since June 30, she broke her maiden at Canterbury Park that day racing at this six furlong distance. Lightly-raced grey filly has a set of three solid local works showing and is a threat if ready of the 4.5 month layoff.
