Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (LATINA MO) (3-1) - Filly stretches out in distance after rallying to finish second here at this claiming price going 5.5-furlongs Dec 30. It was her second start back off a 2.5 month break and her first ever in blinkers. She gets a slight edge.

2nd pick: #7 (Maritalpreservation) (5-1) - Well bred filly ships in from Turf Paradise where she was beaten a 'nose' going 7.5-furlongs on the grass. Good effort and a repeat of it on the dirt makes her dangerous.

3rd pick: #3 (Sassy Ashley) (7-2) - Speed/stalker enters off a fourth place finish at Los Alamitos going 6-furlongs Dec 15. It was her first ever at this tag and she had a tough inside post in a large field (11). Win candidate should be involved every step.

4th pick: #2 (Tinian) (5-2) - She's working well locally for her first since Oct 14. 4yo returns of a pair of layoffs and is a strong factor if she runs to her a.m. drills.
