Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (GOT TOBE AWESOME) (3-1) - Gelding is stretching out around two-turns for the first time. He's rallied to finish second in both sprint attempts and is bred to enjoy the additional real estate. Veteran Art Sherman has him making back-to-back starts for the first time and 3-year-old gets a slight edge.

2nd pick: #6 (Small Town Shuffle) (8-1) - Long shot has early speed and is moving up in class while stretching out in distance. He's racing first off a Vic Trujillo claim (22%) and is a threat if left alone on the lead.

3rd pick: #7 (Sammy Wonder Stone) (8-1) - Lightly-raced gelding held gamely to finish second going seven furlongs for a $50K tag. It was his first back off a 70 day break and a career best overall.

4th pick: #3 (Wondering Ways) (6-1) - He raced evenly when debuting at this level going six furlongs at Los Alamitos. Home bred finished six lengths behind 'Got Tobe Awesome' that afternoon and has worked fast since.
