Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (I'M PRAYINGFORTHAT) (2-1) - She finished a pace-chasing 2nd here at this distance for a $25K tag Feb. 6, then had early traffic issues before tiring facing state-breds at the special weight condition March 6. Her barn drops her to a new low ($16,000 tag), and she gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #6 (Cultivation) (6-1) - 4yo should have won here at this level and distance Feb. 21, but she had traffic issues and was beaten by a 'nose.' In her follow up March 29, she broke slowly and again had traffic problems when missing by seven lengths. Stretch runner gets a rider switch and is dangerous today with a better break and journey.
3rd pick: #2 (Borrowed Angel) (8-1) - She was never involved debuting here at this distance facing special weight foes March 27. Her connections have her taking a big drop in class and are adding both blinkers and Lasix for her second attempt. Interesting longshot.
4th pick: #9 (Dancingwithjimmieb) (8-1) - The field's most experienced maiden, she's finished 2nd in two of her last five starts and did so at this trip on the grass Jan. 10. Her outside post demands an alert break, or she'll have a wide trip and be limited to a minor award.
