Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (SALUTOS AMIGOS) (5-2) - One of two veterans entered by trainer Dave Jacobson and they race uncoupled. An 11 time winner overall, he's in top shape and has won three stakes in the past on this main surface. One-run type draws a fine outside post and is the top choice.
2nd pick: #8 (Stallwalkin' Dude) (15-1) - Longshot is the second of the Jacobson pair. He finished third to 'Salutos Amigos' in the G3 Tom Fool Handicap March 12, then was a sharp winner over lesser foes nine days later. Six-year-old has more lifetime wins (three) at this distance than any other running.
3rd pick: #2 (Majestic Affair) (7-2) - From the Pletcher barn, he's earned 'triple digit' 'figures in his last two outings. In career best shape, once promising 3-year-old has really stepped it up of late. Now 4-year-old has a fine record at this often tricky distance 4-2-1-0.
4th pick: #3 (Dads Caps) (10-1) - Longshot is seeking a repeat win in this G1 Handicap. Speed/stalker won this race April 4 of 2015 and has only raced three times since. Veteran sprinter is a perfect three for three on the main track here and is a threat with his best at a big price.
