Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (PRESSING LUCK) (3-1) - Gelding looked sharp when breaking his maiden here going 6.5 furlongs on a sloppy surface Jan. 11. It was his first ever at Delta Downs and he's been stringing starts together after returning from a year's layoff Oct. 15. He's cutting back in distance so make sure you box your exactas in this contest.
2nd pick: #7 (Victory Shout) (7-2) - Away from action for the past two months, he's dropping down to this $5,000 price tag for the first time. Stalker draws outside of the main speed types and he has a good record at this distance 11-1-3-3.
3rd pick: #8 (Start a War) (4-1) - Competitive in four of his last five, he set a pressured pace and held to finish second here at this level and distance Jan. 24. It was his first local start after spending his entire carer in Kentucky. Must be left in the mix.
4th pick: #4 (On Time) (8-1) - Very fast from the gate, he set a pressured pace before weakening to finish fourth, beaten 7 lengths here at this tag and trip Jan. 24. He was 5.5 lengths in back of 'Start a War' that evening so he must do better for anything more than a minor award.
