Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (SAHARA STORM) (5-2) - Colt is taking a big drop in class and is shortening up in distance. Only beaten 7.5 lengths facing much tougher going nine furlongs here May 18. He meets a weak group and can take with this with a late rally.
2nd pick: #3 (Eichel) (2-1) - Competitive in seven straight starts, he missed by less than a length here at this trip facing Cal bred allowance foes May 19. He has good early speed and his latest effort earned him a career best figure and the highest last out in this small group.
3rd pick: #1 (Slasher) (5-1) - Lightly raced 3yo moves to the grass for the first time. He's doubling up in price following a 2nd place finish going seven furlongs on the dirt for a $20K tag. He has solid grass breeding and should factor at a square price.
