Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (INTERIOR SECRETARY) (7-2) - He's racing second back off of several layoffs and is dropping into a career soft spot. Gelding by 'Mineshaft' was beaten two lengths for a $40K tag Nov 9 and has since come back with a near bullet half-mile breeze Nov 30. Gets a slight edge.

2nd pick: #4 (Rich Dalone) (5-1) - 'Rich' has been competitive in three straight starts since dropping back down to this level. Speed/stalker is stringing starts together and is a win candidate.

3rd pick: #11 (Elusive New Yorker) (4-1) - Gelding rallied while wide to finish second Nov 18 in his first start at this level. Stalker has enough early speed to not let his outside post hurt his overall chances. Must be left in the mix.

4th pick: #9 (Tino) (8-1) - Even-paced type has finished well within range several times and is dropping down to this level for the first time. Lightly-raced he has a shot at a square price.

5th pick: #12 (El Genio) (15-1) - Speedy maiden has tired badly in his last pair and 5-year-old draws a tough outside post for his style. Needs to be sent hard and hope for the best. May last for a minor award at a big price.
