Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (PORT ELIZABETH) (2-1) - Calif. bred filly rallied while very wide to miss by a 'head' here at this level going 4.5-furlongs March 7. It was her first start since April 1 of 2016 and first ever on conventional dirt. She gets an additional 1/16th of a mile to travel and that's a plus for her style.

2nd pick: #8 (Likely Story) (3-1) - Debuting filly is by a under-rated stallion 'Tale of Ekati' and is in a good medium size barn (Ed Kereluk). Four-year-old breezed a sharp five furlongs from the gate March 5 and she need not be anything special to factor first out against this group.

3rd pick: #4 (Barroom Princess) (7-2) - She had some late traffic issues when finishing fourth, three lengths behind 'Port Elizabeth' last out. It was her first in three months and grey filly has more gate speed than most entered. Idaho bred should be involved every step.
