Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #8 (ZULU) (8-5) - $900K son of ;Bernardini' was an impressive winner when making his debut here Dec 5. Heavily backed that day, trainer Todd Pletcher has him working steadily and this colt he may have a bright future.
2nd pick: #7 (Avast Majesty) (4-1) - NEW gelding has been sharp in both appearances, both being local. He broke his maiden here at this distance Dec 19 and looked good doing it. He needs to improve if 'Zulu' repeats his first 'figure'.
3rd pick: #1 (Prospectus) (6-1) - Another from the Pletcher barn, he won his debut here Nov 7, then rallied to finish 3rd following a slow start Dec 12. Has the rail and is a threat with an alert break.
