Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (SWEETER THANCANDY) (8-5) - She's the morning line favorite based on four straight competitive efforts on the dirt since dropping down in class. Stalker was beaten by less than a length here at this tag Feb. 14th, and she'll be tough against this crew.
2nd pick: #4 (Maid Easy) (4-1) - Lightly raced home bred rallied mildly to finish 4th of 10, beaten by 5.5 lengths racing here at this tag Feb. 7th. Useful effort came off a very long layoff (13.5 months), and she's making back-to-back starts for the first time.
3rd pick: #5 (Racing Hope) (8-1) - Longshot raced both wide and evenly when finishing 4.5 lengths behind 'Maid Easy' here Feb. 7th. It was her first since late March, and she should improve this afternoon. 4yo can factor at a big price.
4th pick: #2 (Turf Club Queen) (4-1) - Away for 37.5 months, one of the longest layoffs I've ever seen. Mare is working steadily at San Luis Rey Downs for her return, and she missed by a 'head' facing tougher way back on Dec. 6th of 2012.
