Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #10 (LITTLE PLUMBER) (3-1) - The main speed, he set the pace and held to finish second here going 5.5 furlongs on the dirt Jan. 5. Effort was a career best and he moves back to the grass, shortens up a bit, ad Irad Ortiz Jr. is back on the re-ride.
2nd pick: #6 (Tew Ways) (7-2) - He's been competitive in two straight and last out received a rather poor ride. Colt draws well and fits nicely with this below average field. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #3 (La Natural) (4-1) - Debuting Iris import is from an excellent first out barn of Wesley Ward (29%) and she worked fast at Palm Meadows Jan 14. The field's only filly, she's dangerous if ready.
4th pick: #12 (El Guerrero Azteca) (12-1) - A poor post today is no help for this one-run type. Very wide last out, he had been very competitive in his previous pair. He gets a rider upgrade and is capable of impacting at long odds.
