Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (JILL MADDEN) (6-5) - Blinkers go on filly who has finished second in three straight here facing tougher. The latest came when she was beaten a 1/2 length April 6 facing $50K claimers in her first ever at this mile distance. Home bred will be very difficult to beat in this spot.

2nd pick: #4 (Warrior Vixen) (4-1) - She has a bit of early speed but filly finished 8.5 lengths behind 'Jill Madden' here at this distance April 6. She's worked twice since, has blinkers removed following a one race experiment, and drops to a new low. Think she'll narrow the gap with 'Jill' today.

3rd pick: #7 (Quiet No More) (7-2) - Golden Gate shipper drops in class, switches from a synthetic surface to real dirt, has blinkers on, and Bejarano aboard. She showed little in her debut March 11, but trainer Eoin Harty wins at a solid 30% rate (7 for his last 23) second time out.
