Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (MINER'S NOTION) (2-1) - He ships in from Zia Park in New Mexico where he's finished 2nd in two straight on the dirt. Speed/stalker is racing on the grass for the first time and is bred for the surface change. He has the rail and gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #4 (Cecil the Cat) (9-2) - Very lightly raced Cal bred raced evenly following a slow break racing here at this level and distance Oct. 23rd. He has talent, and that was only his second lifetime start. He should be involved from gate-to-wire.
3rd pick: #5 (Ya Antabttsy) (5-2) - 3yo by 'Arch' rallied into a fast and contested pace to finish 2nd here at this tag and trip Oct. 23rd. It was a career best, and he's clearly shown that he prefers the turf. Stretch threat.
4th pick: #8 (The Great Lebowski) (5-1) - No. California shipper lacks early speed, but is capable with his best of getting a share of this in his local debut.
