Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (SENTRY) (2-1) - The morning line favorite, gelding ships from Florida where he finished a pace-chasing second at Gulfstream going a mile for a $50K tag March 9. He worked fast April 13 at Belmont and is the top choice.
2nd pick: #11 (Cumulative) (4-1) - Four-year-old ships from Oaklawn where he showed nothing on a sloppy track Feb. 17. Competitive in both previous turf starts, he worked fast April 14 and is dangerous if able to avoid a wide trip.
3rd pick: #4 (Troopingthecolor) (10-1) - Freshened up since Feb. 11, 3-year-old just missed at Gulfstream for a $20K tag that afternoon. Working steadily since, trainer Barclay Tagg doubles him up in price for this attempt. Home bred must be left in the mix.
4th pick: #9 (Texican) (3-1) - From the dangerous barn of Chad Brown, 4-year-old is dropping into a claimer, stretching out in distance, and is on the grass all for the first time. Trainer is having a great met and this gelding is an obvious contender.
