Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (NIPPY RED) (7-2) - He ships back from the Fair Grounds where he finished a pacesetting third at this level going a mile on the grass Jan. 31. It was his second back off a 7-month layoff and he should be at his peak as he switches back to the dirt while cutting back a furlong.
2nd pick: #4 (Strollin Spree) (3-1) - This 4yo 'broke in the air' but closed from far back to miss by a 1/2 length here at this level going 6.5 furlongs Jan. 26. He's a win candidate in this spot
3rd pick: #8 (Tale of the Prince) (9-2) - The main speed, he set the pace before weakening to finish third, 1.5 lengths behind 'Strollin Spree' Jan. 26. Very sharp in two straight, he's dangerous and in the three horse win mix.
4th pick: #2 (And Yet Another) (15-1) - Longshot makes up some ground in most of his races and may grab a share at a big price if the pace is fast and/or contested.
