Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (MIDDLE OUT) (9-2) - A lightly raced 3yo filly, she's been on the sidelines since Oct. 28. Her one start on the grass was a positive one and she has some fine works showing for her return.
2nd pick: #7 (Rossellini) (3-1) - Tampa shipper was never involved when debuting there facing 'open' company March 9. In the barn of Bill Mott (15% second time out), he drops her into a claimer and has her in with fellow New York breds.
3rd pick: #2 (Handle With Care) (7-2) - On the sidelines since Oct. 13, she has early speed and was only beaten 3.5 lengths at this level going a mile on the Saratoga turf Sept. 3. Training steadily, she's in the mix if ready.
4th pick: #4 (Grand Banks) (4-1) - This is start #25 in search of her maiden win. Competitive in 7-of-14 on the grass, she's finished second in five of those. An obvious win candidate, but is no 'lock' at a short price.
