Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #10 (ORCHID PARTY) (7-2) - Filly raced both wide and evenly when finishing 3rd in a $100K stakes for state breds going six furlongs April 21 at Aqueduct. Stalker had won three in a row prior to that and did so on a muddy surface Feb. 17 at Aqueduct. She's facing older rivals for the first time, but gets a small edge in a competitive 'off the turf' allowance.
2nd pick: #2 (Still There) (5-1) - $160,000 daughter of 'Union Rags' ships from Kentucky where she was a sharp winner when debuting against 'open' company going six furlongs at Keeneland April 18. 4yo is in with fellow state breds today and is dangerous at a square price.
3rd pick: #13 (Satisfy) (3-1) - 4yo was an impressive three-length maiden winner when debuting here at six furlongs April 28. She's stretching out a bit, draws a good outside post at this trip, and the filly was a main track only entrant.
4th pick: #6 (Pink Twist) (3-1) - Speedy and well bred, she's cutting back a furlong after missing by a 'neck' at this level going a mile April 21 at Aqueduct. Daughter of 'Malibu Moon' races off a private trainer change to John Terranova, and she's an obvious factor, but at a short price.
5th pick: #11 (Spa Treatment) (12-1) - Longshot has been freshened up since a maiden win going six furlongs at Aqueduct April 7 at Aqueduct. In her previous start 4yo was only a 'neck' behind 'Pink Twist,' and I think she can be competitive today at a big price.
