Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (CHEROKEE SOUND) (7-2) - Freshened up since missing by a 'neck' here at this level Jan. 8, she's working fast at the Palm Meadows Center and and meets a rather weak looking filed in today's finale. I like her chances.
2nd pick: #5 (Laska) (5-1) - From the famous Augustin Stable of George Strawbridge, this filly has rallied strongly in all three starts since dropping into claimers. She's improving and is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #8 (Singsong Bird) (15-1) - Longshot is the field's most experienced maiden and is dropping down after an even effort facing $40K claiming foes Feb. 14. She's worked three times since and is a threat at a big price.
4th pick: #4 (Matcha) (5-1) - Lightly raced 5yo lost by almost five lengths here facing tougher Feb. 14. She was 1.5 lengths in front of 'Singsong Bird' that afternoon in her first start since May 26 and must be left in the mix today.
