Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (SAGITTARI) (5-2) - He 's been freshened since missing by a 1/2 length facing tougher going a mile April 21. A career best, he was involved every step in what was his first start beyond six furlongs. Training steadily, he gets top billing in today's opener.

2nd pick: #6 (Hard Arch) (2-1) - Colt raced evenly while a bit 'rank' going nine furlongs on the grass for a $50,000 claiming price May 25. It was his first on the turf after four competitive starts on conventional dirt. Colt has more positional speed than most and should be involved from gate-to-wire.

3rd pick: #8 (Cleanup Hitter) (6-1) - Stretch-out sprinter is switching from turf to dirt for this attempt. He's racing third back from a four month break and 4-year-old worked a big bullet half-mile June 25.
