Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (FAST FRACTION) (4-1) - This lightly raced filly has been on the sidelines since missing by a length here going a mile for a $25K price tag Dec. 5. Trainer Saffie Joseph, Jr. wins at a 28% rate off of long layoffs, and he has this home-bred training fast for her return. Barn drops her down a bit, and she gets top billing.

2nd pick: #7 (Garner State Park) (2-1) - The morning line and probable favorite, she rallied to finish 3rd of 10, missing by 1.5 lengths when debuting here at this level and distance March 25. Owned and trained by Todd Pletcher, he wins at a 23% rate second time out, and this filly is an obvious win candidate.

3rd pick: #2 (Herculina) (6-1) - Her best effort in three attempts came in her only previous start on the grass, which was here for a $25K tag on Nov. 30. Daughter of 'Verrazano' raced evenly while missing by 3.5 lengths and has been training very fast at the Palm Meadows Center for her first since Jan. 24. She's a threat at a square price.

4th pick: #8 (A Beautiful Day) (4-1) - Speedy sort drops to a new low after tiring late in her last pair facing tougher. She drops to a new low and may hold down a share of this.
