Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #9 (KERJILLION) (7-5) - Very lightly-raced 4-year-old hasn't raced since breaking his maiden here in impressive fashion Oct 2 of 2014. NEW gelding trained in Florida at Palm Meadows for his return and is from the barn of Chad Brown (24% off of long layoffs). Promising home bred has Irad Ortiz Jr. aboard and can take this if ready.
2nd pick: #1 (Momma's Mark) (8-1) - Longshot moves up in class after finishing second when facing $25K 2l 'open' company at this distance April 23 at Aqueduct. It was his best since last July and stalker draws a ground saving post.
3rd pick: #2 (Papa Freud) (12-1) - Another potential longshot, he ships from Gulfstream where he was competitive in three of five starts on the grass facing weaker. He has more early speed than most and may grab a share at a big price.
4th pick: #8 (Brother O'Connell) (4-1) - He raced evenly while having some traffic issues when checking in fourth of seven, beaten almost three lengths racing at this level in an off the turf contest at Aqueduct April 10. Colt by 'Giant's Causeway' is at his best when on the grass and can factor in this spot.
