Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (READ THE DREAM) (2-1) - He's finished second in three straight since being claimed by Bob Falcone Jr. for $25K last September. Stalker has a clear speed to chase and I like his chances to run him down.

2nd pick: #1 (Altesino) (3-1) - The main speed, he has the rail and has finished third in three straight at this level and distance. Lightly-raced home bred is still improving and is a major threat to take this field from gate-to-wire.

3rd pick: #5 (Nevisian Sky) (6-1) - Un-raced since May, he's working above average for his return. Gelding is from a top barn (Chad Brown) and it's noted that this 4-year-old took serious betting action in both starts last spring. Brown and jockey Jose Ortiz have won with 15-of-36 (42%) when teamed up over the past 12.5 months.

4th pick: #4 (Light the Vow) (4-1) - Even-paced type raced very wide last out while finishing behind both 'Read the Dream' and 'Altesino'. Stretch factor at a square price with a better trip.
