Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (BILLY'S KITTEN) (3-1) - Very lightly-raced colt ships from Keeneland where he was an impressive maiden winner going 12 furlongs on the grass April 29. Ramsey home bred by 'Kitten's Joy' has unlimited potential and is nicely spotted by trainer Bruce Brown in his first facing winners.
2nd pick: #5 (Coturnix) (15-1) - Longshot is stretching out in distance after finishing a close up fourth here going 8.5 furlongs for a $40K tag May 20. It was his first start in almost four months and he's been sharp in both previous attempts at this 11 furlong trip.
3rd pick: #8 (Vulcan's Forge) (8-1) - The type that can 'run al day,' he's lightly-raced and is stretching out a bit in distance. He rallied to check in a close up fourth here when facing tougher, going 8.5 furlongs May 12 and should love this longer trip.
4th pick: #9 (East Bay Lodge) (15-1) - Another longshot, he's won two of three previous starts at this 11-furlong distance. Grey gelding runs third back off a five month layoff and may grab a share at a big price.
5th pick: #2 (Nigel's Destiny) (6-1) - Well bred gelding rallied to finish second here in a first-level allowance May 8. It was his first in No. America and first race in 11 months. He was an allowance type horse in England and is capable of getting a piece to this with is best.
