Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (ZAPPER VAN WINKLE) (9-2) - A home bred by 'Ghostzapper,' he's been freshened up since a pair of close up finishes at the Fair Grounds this past winter. Working fast here, this gelding gets top billing today.
2nd pick: #8 (Twelfth Labour) (5-1) - He tired after pressing a quick pace to finish a distant 2nd at this level going seven furlongs April 6 at Keeneland. By far a career best, it was his first since Feb. 16, and first with blinkers. A win candidate today.
3rd pick: #2 (Ry's the Guy) (3-1) - Blinkers go on this colt who was less than a length behind 'Twelfth Labour' April 6 at Keeneland. He's racing second back from a two-month freshening and must be left in the mix today.
4th pick: #3 (Dominant Force) (5-1) - Well bred colt tired when debuting at six furlongs Feb. 24 at Oaklawn. $410,000 purchase is working very fast here, and I believe he's a threat at a big price.
