Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (STORMIN STEPHEN) (5-2) - Speed/stalker is racing second back from a half-year's absence. He rallied to finish third here at this level and distance in his return start May 4. Trainer Chris Clement adds blinkers, has worked him twice since, and Javier Castellano stays aboard. Looks like 'graduation day' for this 3-year-old by 'Malibu Moon'.

2nd pick: #7 (Slapstick) (7-2) - Home bred recovered following a very poor start to finish fifth, 1.5 lengths behind 'Stormin Stephen' May 4. It was his first race since Nov 1 and this gelding is dangerous with an alert beginning.

3rd pick: #6 (The Undersheriff) (8-1) - Longshot rallied while wide to check in between 'Stormin Stephen' and 'Slapstick' May 4. Solid effort came off a six month layoff and was a career best. Much improved since moving to the grass, he must be left in the

4th pick: #8 (Brett the Jet) (10-1) - NEW gelding ran evenly in a pair at this level going longer last fall. Working well for his first since Nov 22, he runs off a positive trainer change to Gary Gullo (24% with new arrivals to his barn)
