Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (JUST KITTEN YOU) (3-1) - This son of 'Kitten's Joy' has been freshened up since rallying to miss by a length here at this claiming price going 8.5 furlongs Jan. 10. Ramsey home bred is working steadily, he should like this 9-furlong distance, and I give him a slight edge.
2nd pick: #5 (Go Poke the Bear) (2-1) - The morning line favorite, he's dropping to a new low following a fourth-place finish here at this distance for a $35K tag Feb. 7. He's from the Pletcher barn and is a strong win candidate
3rd pick: #6 (Fine Spirit) (4-1) - Florida bred has had serious problems at the gate in both starts. He did make up ground in each and is dropping into a claimer, has blinkers on, and leading rider Irad Ortiz Jr. is signed on for the first time by 'Hall of Famer' Bill Mott.
