Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (BRUTE STRENGTH) (5-2) - Lightly-raced grey gelding broke his maiden facing Louisiana bred special weights going six furlongs at the Fair Grounds March 25. In his follow up start April 22 he missed by a 1/2 length here at this level and distance. Gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #2 (Day Drinker) (3-1) - Blinkers come off this gelding that was only a length behind 'Brute Strength' here April 22. Speed/stalker breaks just off the rail and is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #5 (Alex's Turn) (4-1) - He tired badly after pressing the pace here at this level going a mile April 28. Competitive in four straight sprints prior to that, his connections shorten him up this evening. Factors today.
4th pick: #1 (Classic Greeley) (10-1) - Longshot moves way up in class after missing by a 'neck' facing weaker here April 29. By far a career best, stretch runner earned a figure that isn't far off what the top three selections can produce. Has the rail and may grab a share at a big price.
