Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (BUCKWELLSPENT) (5-2) - The morning line favorite, gelding has been competitive in four straight dirt sprints at this level. Speed/stalker faces only two drop downs and is the top choice. But make sure you reverse your exactas with him as he's slightly vulnerable.

2nd pick: #4 (Secret Scholar) (10-1) - Longshot enters off a distant second place finish here at this tag and trip Sept. 30. It was a useful effort and he gets a big rider upgrade to Angel Arroyo.

3rd pick: #6 (Ornato) (5-1) - Lightly-raced 3-year-old ran evenly following a troubled break and wide trip when debuting against tougher Aug. 21 a Saratoga. Home bred received some betting action that day and is dropping down for his second attempt. A near bullet half-mile gate breeze on the Saratoga training track Oct 16 suggests that he can contend at a square price.

4th pick: #9 (Summer Bourbon) (3-1) - Away from action since July 1, $85,000 purchase is dropping in class and shortening up in distance. A NEW gelding, no-speed type is a stretch threat if ready.
