Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (LAKE SHORE GAL) (3-1) - She's dropping in class and stretching out in distance. Daughter of 'Tiznow' was never in her local debut when she 'bobbled' at the break going seven furlongs for a $25K tag Dec 20. It was her first start back off a pair of three month layoffs and she's dropping to a new low in today's finale. This field is very weak and it may be a case of now or never.
2nd pick: #3 (Lady Sequoia) (8-1) - Philadelphia shipper has raced evenly in her first pair facing tougher in sprints. Mare is daking a big drop and stretching out in distance. Daughter of 'Mr. Greeley' cost $100K and runs today for an $8000 claiming price.
3rd pick: #6 (Valderee) (5-1) - Home bred tired last out after racing close up until the top of the stretch. She's another taking a drop and her last pair should be viewed as positive outings.
4th pick: #9 (Sweet Rock) (6-1) - Filly has been competitive in four straight since coming off a two month break in early October. She has a new trainer (Scott Lake) and this 4-year-old can factor if able to avoid a wide trip from an outside post in this two-turn contest.
