Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #10 (BITTER'S N BOURBON) (3-1) - Speedy 6yo is racing first off a Karl Broberg claim (a strong 30% winning angle) and a subsequent seven week freshening. He enters off a pair of back-to-back second place finishes at the Fair Grounds and races today with blinkers on.
2nd pick: #7 (Dapper Jack) (9-2) - He was competitive in all four starts at the Fair Grounds this past winter after returning from a 13 month layoff Jan 15. Lightly-raced 4-year-old has early speed and is racing first following an Ed Ramirez claim (15%). He should be involved every step.
3rd pick: #3 (Street Rhythm) (12-1) - Longshot broke his maiden sprinting at the Fair Grounds Feb. 18. In his follow up start March 20, he had some issues that caused him to go of stride nearing the stretch. A major player and a strong win candidate with his best.
4th pick: #4 (Speedy Thief) (10-1) - Speed/stalker is facing winners for the first time. He was an easy maiden winner at Delta Downs going five furlongs for a $10K price tag March 3 in his second start back of a two month break. Improving 4-year-old has a shot at a big price.
