Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (CENTRAL COMMAND) (2-1) - He's been away since March 17 when he won his debut here in very impressive fashion going 6.5 furlongs. A $575,000 son of 'Into Mischief', he obviously has some issues, but is working very fast at the Palm Meadows Center for trainer Chad Brown and gets a slight edge. However, make sure you box your bets in this contest.
2nd pick: #4 (Articulator) (9-2) - This colt finished a pace-setting 2nd here at this level and distance Dec. 7. It was his second back following an almost five-month layoff and his first off a claim by leading trainer Jorge Navarro. A win candidate.
3rd pick: #6 (Empire Power) (12-1) - Competitive in three straight facing weaker, he's moving up in class in his first following a claim by Tamara Levy for $30,000 Dec. 12. He has a speed/stalking style, a fine record (4-1-2-0) at this distance, and think he's capable of impacting at a big price.
4th pick: #3 (Star Juancho) (8-1) - Very consistent facing weaker, state bred moves up in class for this attempt. He has sharp early speed and comes off a very strong 2018 (15-2-7-5).
