Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (SOUTH BOOT SHIRLEY) (7-2) - Lightly raced filly rallied to finish 3rd here at this distance facing tougher May 10. Competitive in three of four, 3yo draws a much better post today, drops back down, and gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #8 (Super Patriot) (9-5) - The morning line and probable favorite, filly has been competitive in four straight with three of those coming on the turf. Speed/stalker from the Baffert barn is an obvious win candidate in what is a weak field for the $50,000 price tag.
3rd pick: #6 (Bad and Bougie) (8-1) - She raced close up before weakening to finish 7th of eight, beaten 10.5 lengths when debuting here facing tougher on the 6.5 furlong 'down the hill' course April 13. Down in class and stretching out in distance, home bred should factor in this spot.
4th pick: #1 (Dianka) (6-1) - Turf Paradise shipper rallied to finish 2nd there at this distance April 16. It was her first on the grass, a career best, and today she runs off a private trainer change to Mike Puype.
