Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (RATE OF RETURN) (4-1) - She has a bit more positional speed than most and has finished a close-up fourth in two of her last three starts, each at this tag and trip. I give her a slight edge in a rather poor field.
2nd pick: #4 (It's About Me) (3-1) - The 4yo has traded decisions with 'Rate of Return' in her last pair and she's been wide in both. She draws a better post for this attempt and is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #6 (Alexandras Joy) (12-1) - The main speed, she's tired in the final furlong of her last pair after coming off a nine-month layoff Feb. 16. So, she runs third back off a long break and that often is a good situation. Longhsot possibilities.
4th pick: #8 (Konstantinova) (7-2) - Filly finished a close-up fourth here at this tag Feb 15. It was announced earlier today that trainer Yvon Belsoeur changed riders from Maria Scaldaferri to Luis Saez and that alone makes this 3yo a win candidate
