Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (SIMPLICITYIZGENIUS) (4-5) - The probable heavy favorite, speedy gelding missed by a 'neck' here at this tag and trip Nov 30. In a very good barn (Mike Chambers), grey 4-year-old meets a weak field and should win this in gate-to-wire style.

2nd pick: #8 (The Big Spoon) (7-2) - He has some ability and is racing for the first time since Sept 28. Gelding runs off a positive trainer change to Greg Tracy (16 for his last 64, 25%). Veteran Scott Stevens is aboard. Looks like the main danger.

3rd pick: #1 (Cool Ice) (8-1) - He exits the same Nov 30 race as 'Simplicityizgenius'. Grey gelding battle that rival for the top spot and weakened late to finish just under four lengths back of that rival. Has the rail and should hold on for a share.
