Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (CONGRATS KID) (5-2) - With the late scratch of both halves of the Rudy Rodriguez trained entry this colt becomes the top pick. He had a very rough trip here at this claiming price going six furlongs here March 31. It was his first following a Steve Asmussen claim and stalker can beat this group with a clean break and trip.
2nd pick: #7 (Where's Willy) (7-2) - NEW gelding is taking a big drop in class, is switching from turf to dirt, and is shortening up a furlong. Three-year-old by 'Midnight Lute' cost $330,000 back in 2014 and trainer Dom Schettino had him work a sharp half-mile April 16 at Belmont.
3rd pick: #2 (Debonnaire Derek) (4-1) - One of two making their debuts, grey gelding cost $35,000 and makes his first appearance racing for a $25K claiming price. He's been working steadily since early January, has the rail, and need not be much to factor against this field.
