Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (MACHU PICHU SKY) (3-1) - One of several well bred maidens, 3yo by 'Harlan's Holiday' has the rail, and the best proven early speed. He's finished 2nd here in three straight at this level and distance and gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #2 (Southwest Trail) (4-1) - One of two entered by trainer Tony Dutrow, and the pair race uncoupled. This son of 'Uncle Mo' cost $390,000, but has not shown much so far. However, he's been in some strong fields when racing on the Oaklawn dirt and is a win candidate in this spot.
3rd pick: #6 (Aimed) (5-1) - Lightly raced home bred rallied to finish 3rd going six furlongs at this level April 16 at Aqueduct. It was his first race in four months and he had some serious traffic issues at the break. Barn has him trying a two-turn trip for the first time.
4th pick: #6 (Gloves Off) (7-2) - The second of the two trained by Tony Dutrow, he ships from Belmont where he rallied to finish a distant 2nd sprinting for a $50K tag April 30. A career best, barn stretches him out in distance with Joe Bravo aboard.
