Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #10 (TIME TO TWO STEP) (2-1) - She broke his maiden here going a mile for a $12,500 tag April 23, then ran 2nd at it for a $6,250 claiming price April 23. A lightly raced 4yo, stalker doubles up in price, draws well, and I give her top billing.
2nd pick: #9 (Abarrio Forever) (12-1) - This longshot stretches out in distance following a non-threatening 3rd place finish going five furlongs for a $16K tag in an 'off the turf' contest April 26. Even paced filly is a late threat at a big price.
3rd pick: #4 (Paola's Team) (7-2) - This lightly raced 3yo has been freshened up since finishing 4th at this distance for a $16K tag March 8. Training above average, her small barn has Irad Ortiz, Jr. aboard, a sure sign that they like this one's chances.
