Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #9 (ESMERALDA BELLE) (8-5) - Filly rallied while eight wide to miss by a 'neck' here at this level and distance Nov. 15. It was her first local outing after making her first 13 starts on the tougher So. California circuit. Can win this down the stretch.
2nd pick: #10 (Emma's Parade) (4-1) - Extremely wide last out, she closed to check in fourth, six lengths in back of 'Esmeralda Belle.' She draws a tough outside post and will most certainly have another wide trip. A fast and/or contested pace would aid her prospects.
3rd pick: #8 (Kylie Baby) (8-1) - Interesting grey filly has sharp early speed and runs for the first time since Oct. 1. In a race without a lot of visible pace, this 3-year-old is dangerous if she sprints to an uncontested lead in the first 1/4 mile.
4th pick: #3 (T G's Gypsy Girl) (12-1) - She made a solid bid last out, but tired to finish fourth, six lengths in back of 'Esmeralda' and a 1/2 length behind 'Emma'. It was a good effort and she could factor at a big price.
