Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (VICKI'S DANCER) (5-2) - Veteran mare drops back down in class and switches from turf to dirt. She tired to finish last of four in a $95K turf sprint here May 1. He record on the main track stands at 28-6-3-7 and this is a level she's been sharp at in the past. Old timer is in shape and draws a nice outside post at this 6.5 furlong distance.
2nd pick: #5 (Roman Ceres) (4-1) - Filly takes on a tougher group after winning her first pair. Three-year-old has been freshened up since late March and is training very fast for 'Hall of Famer' Bill Mott. She should be sharp again today if she runs to her a.m. drills.
3rd pick: #2 (Lakeside Sunset) (3-1) - Consistent speed/stalker hasn't raced since Nov 20. She's finished a close up third in all three starts at this level and has been sharp in all three local outings. Dangerous if ready.
4th pick: #3 (Tahoe Tigress) (5-1) - Stretch runner has been sidelined since Early December. Another veteran mare, she has more wins at Belmont (five) than the rest of her opponents combined (four). She needs a fast and/or contested pace for anything more than a minor award.
