Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (ARISTOCRATIC) (8-5) - He's both the 'class' and speed of this small field. A stakes winner earlier this year at Santa Anita, this colt is working fast, and drops into a straight claimer for the first time. He'll be tough in this spot.
2nd pick: #6 (One I'm Running To) (7-2) - He's moving back to the dirt after a very wide and even trip going five furlongs on the local turf July 21. It was his first following a Mark Glat claim, and this lightly raced gelding had won three in a row on the main track prior to that. In the mix.
3rd pick: #5 (Burn Me Twice) (3-1) - Since finishing 4th here in his debut Dec. 6, he's won two of four dirt sprints, and was competitive in his two defeats. His latest score came here facing weaker Aug. 3, but the figure earned was big.
