Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (MR CLASSICAL) (7-2) - He rallied from between horse on the far turn then held down the place to a 'much the best' winner going 7 furlongs here at this $25K price tag March 29. It was his first start in 6.5 months and he's brought back in 23 days while stretching out to a mile. He gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #2 (Outlaw) (3-1) - Speedy 4yo set a pressured pace and held gamely to finish third, only a 'head' behind 'Mr Classical'. It was his first ever at this $25K tag and he's a very strong win candidate.
3rd pick: #6 (Union Station) (9-5) - The morning line and probable favorite, Godolphin owned gelding by 'Union Rags' cost $200,000 and is dropping into a claimer for the first time. That formula led to a win in yesterday's last race at odds of 2-5 from the same owner/trainer/jockey. A contender, but at a very short price.
