Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (BUNYAN'S AXE) (8-1) - He tired badly here at this level and distance May 18. He had finished second in four of five this past Winter/Spring at Gulfstream Park facing $20,000 'open' company and this stalker has Luis Saez back aboard following a two race absence. I give this 4yo a slight edge in a contest where you should box your bets.
2nd pick: #5 (My Amanjena) (3-1) - A lightly raced 3yo by 'Big Brown', home bred has improved dramatically since switching to the turf two back. He's finished second in both on the grass, the latest coming here at this level and distance May 18. The probable favorite and a strong win candidate.
3rd pick: #9 (Moo Lah) (9-2) - A very lightly raced 3yo by 'More Than Ready', he rallied to finish 4th of 10, beaten just over five lengths here at this level and distance May 18. Well backed that day in his second back from a four month break, he was bothered at the start and had to rally while seven-wide. In the mix.
4th pick: #8 (Awesome Adversary) (5-1) - A home bred by 'Awesome Again', he's finished second in four straight, the latest pair coming at this level and distance. Stretch runner should factor again today, but he needs to do better in the final 1/8th of a mile.
5th pick: #10 (Sporting Art) (8-1) - A 3yo home bred by 'Munnings', he raced wide when finishing almost three lengths in back of 'My Amanjena' here May 18. Only his second start, it was his first on the grass and a huge move forward off his dirt debut April 20.
