Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #9 (SPECIAL RISK) (5-1) - Longtime maiden is switching from grass to dirt and is dropping back down in class. Stalker draws a fine outside post for this one-turn mile and the last time she raced at this tag on the dirt she finished a close up third in a Saratoga sprint Aug. 30.
2nd pick: #7 (Free Kitty) (2-1) - The morning line and probable favorite, she drops down to race at this $20K tag for the first tie. Three-year-old chased the pace and held to finish second here at this distance Nov. 8 for a $30K claiming price. An obvious contender.
3rd pick: #3 (Unspoken Mission) (12-1) - Longshot is stretching out in distance, races with blinkers on, and $90K purchase is making back-to-back starts for the first time. Well backed in two of her three attempts, if she has any ability it should show today at a big price.
4th pick: #6 (Madeline's Hope) (7-2) - No-speed type rallied to finish third here going 6 furlongs Nov. 17. Her connections are stretching her out to a mile and it's noted that Irad Ortiz Jr is aboard for the first time.
