Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (CALIFORNIA SWING) (5-1) - Son of 'Malibu Moon' raced evenly in the mud at this level going a mile at Aqueduct April 7. It was his first since Dec 2 and trainer Chris Clement is 8-for-26 (31%) at this meet has worked him fast since. Gets a slight edge.

2nd pick: #5 (Lucullan) (2-1) - The probable favorite, he's stretching out in distance following a second place finish going seven furlongs in his debut April 8. Godolphin home bred has worked four times since for a 23% second out barn of Kiaran McLaughlin.

3rd pick: #7 (Saraab) (4-1) - Grey son of 'Tapit' cost $700,000 and is from the Pletcher barn. Competitive in all three starts, he has a nice outside post and should show whatever he has in this spot.

4th pick: #1 (Borsa Vento) (6-1) - Stalker ships in from Keeneland where he finished a wide fourth when going seven furlongs April 14. Working fine since, he has the rail and experience at this distance.
