Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #8 (GEAR JAMMER) (5-2) - Gelding rallied to finish 3rd of 12, beaten less than a length racing here at this level going a mile Sept. 20th. Back in shape following several layoffs, his connections shorten him up a furlong for this attempt.

2nd pick: #11 (River Knight) (7-2) - 6yo has finished 2nd in three straight at this level, including one here at this distance July 9. In shape, he draws a nice outside post, and I almost made him the top pick.

3rd pick: #1 (Freudian Lights) (5-1) - Lightly raced and improving, he's noticeably a better horse since moving to the grass. Unraced since July 11, trainer Billy Turner adds Lasix for this appearance. Must be left in the mix.

4th pick: #6 (Leatherhead Lurie) (15-1) - Longshot tends to race evenly and is running second off a pair of layoffs. When last on the grass, he was 2 1/2 lengths behind 'River Knight' Aug. 5th at Saratoga.

5th pick: #13 (Risky Sour) (20-1) - Another longshot comes off a career best racing here at this level and distance Sept. 23rd. Well bred, he may grab a share at a very big price.
