Aqueduct, Wednesday Race 1

[RockHardTen1985]

Anyone playing this race?
The 9 appears to be the class, but I hate the layoff and the spotty work tab. I think the 3 has a big shot first off the claim, running right back and cutting back. The price should be solid to, assuming the 1,6,9 all run.
Im against the 6 and 9, Ill use the 1 in the pick 3's with the 3.
THere is also a horse named Rift who was OK at one point. He is going to be running off a 1005 day layoff. I could almost make a case for him because his trainer is also red hot, but I cant just because of the layoff.
