Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (OUR LOVE AFFAIR) (5-2) - Very lightly-raced 6-year-old mare ships in from Penn National where she set a solid pace and held to miss by a 1/2 length Feb 24. It was her first race since Nov 2 of 2014 and her first for trainer Mark Salvaggio. She was away slowly that evening and can beat these with an alert beginning.
2nd pick: #3 (Flashy Miss) (7-2) - Grey daughter of 'Flashy Bull' has been idle since Dec 22. She rallied to finish fourth of 11 that afternoon beaten five lengths. It was her first race in eight months and first in a claimer. Four-year-old worked a quick half-mile here Feb 29 and is dropping to a new low. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #6 (Rice and Beans) (4-1) - This is start #33 for this 7-year-old mare. She raced evenly here going five furlongs facing tougher in her local debut March 1. Trainer Jim Ryerson brings her back quickly and is dropping her into a career soft spot. The last time veteran ran in a claimer she finished second for a $25K tag Dec 4 at Aqueduct. Must be left in the three horse win mix.
