Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (PISTOL PACKIN ROSE) (5-2) - Filly moves back in with maidens after a pace-setting third place finish here facing winners Feb. 16. In her previous start 3-year-old missed by a 1/2 length at this tag and trip at this level. In shape, working fast, and home bred will be tough in this spot.

2nd pick: #8 (Summertimemischief) (2-1) - Filly stretches out and is moving up a bit in class. Four-year-old rallied to finish second going seven furlongs for a $20K claiming price Feb. 24. It was her first back from an eight week break and she's an obvious threat in today's opener.

3rd pick: #1 (Curlina Curlina) (10-1) - Longshot has no early speed, but she's another stretching out and daughter of 'Curlin' breaks from the rail. With a patient ride, 4-year-old may grab a share at a very big price.
