Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (LEMON DROP TINI) (3-1) - Daughter of 'Lemon Drop Kid' rallied while wide to miss by just under a length here at this $50K tag going a mile Jan. 3. It was a career-best in four attempts and she runs today from a ground-saving post and with leading rider Irad Ortiz Jr staying aboard.
2nd pick: #4 (Lady Panda) (4-1) - She raced both wide and evenly here at this distance facing tougher Dec. 29. Down in class and with blinkers on, this daughter of 'Animal Kingdom' finished second the only other time she raced at today's $50K tag.
3rd pick: #2 (Omnia) (7-2) - A lightly raced daughter of 'Munnings', she finished second of seven, beaten almost 5 lengths here Jan. 8 going a mile for a $75K tag. It was her first on the grass, her first in a claimer, and a career-best. Down in price, she must be left in the mix.
4th pick: #3 (Malibu Too) (20-1) - Longshot has been freshened up since Nov. 15. $200K daughter of 'Malibu Moon' has tired in both attempts and is dropping into a claimer for trainer Tom Bush. If she has any ability, it will come out at a big price against this group.
