Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (BEDSIDE BLUES) (5-1) - Price play is stretching out in distance and is racing on the grass for the first time. Son of 'Bluegrass Cat' has fine early speed, is bred to enjoy the surface change, and breaks from the rail. Lightly-raced colt has a solid shot at a square price.
2nd pick: #8 (Bapu) (4-1) - Five-year-old is racing second back from another long layoff. He showed nothing in his return here May 1, but it was in a contest that was switched to the main track. Clearly better on the grass and he fits with these with his best.
3rd pick: #10 (Lotta Gold) (8-1) - Colt raced both wide and evenly when debuting April 17 at Aqueduct in a dirt sprint. Trainer Barclay Tagg has freshened him up, switches him to the turf, stretches him out, and has him working above average.
4th pick: #7 (Mascarello) (10-1) - The field's most experienced maiden, he's another switching from dirt to grass and is stretching out in distance. Even-paced type is bred for the turf and trainer Jim Bond is adding blinkers.
5th pick: #6 (Quien Sabe) (12-1) - He raced evenly in three starts on he dirt earlier this year facing tougher. Freshened up for almost eight weeks, trainer Mark Hennig moves him to the grass and drops him in class. Colt has been i with some good horses and should find this group more to his liking.
