Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #11 (TAESTOOT) (6-1) - The field's only first-time starter faces a very weak bunch this evening. Bred for early speed, he's working fine locally and gelding by 'D'Wildcat' is in a barn (Alan Klanfer) that's won with three of its last 10 (30%) with debuting stock over the past 16 months.
2nd pick: #7 (G's Big Red) (5-1) - He was in good form late in 2016 and also in a pair to start this year. However, he's slipped a bit in his last pair. Capable of contending with his best, and as noted above, this is a very poor group.
3rd pick: #1 (Andyouroldladytoo) (5-1) - Well bred 3-year-old has early speed, breaks from the rail, and is dropping to a new low. Home bred should be involved every step and is a win candidate if left alone on the lead in the initial 1/4 mile.
4th pick: #3 (Tricky Malibu) (12-1) - He raced wide and evenly here when beaten 15.5 lengths April 13. It's noted that the first two finishers dominated that contest and this gelding wasn't that far off the show spot. May grab a share at a big price.
