Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (JAMMING EDDY) (8-5) - The morning line and probable favorite, he finished second of 10, beaten a length here at this level and distance May 5. It was his second start back following a two month break and his second at Santa Anita after coming from Gulfstream Park. Grey gelding defeated three of today's rivals that afternoon and will be tough in this spot.

2nd pick: #5 (No Parking Here) (5-1) - He had some serious traffic issues when beaten just under 5 lengths here at this level and distance May 26. Gary Barber home bred also had a tough post that day (10 of 11), draws better and races today with blinkers on.

3rd pick: #4 (Unusually Handsome) (10-1) - Longshot exits the same last race as 'Jamming Eddy' and he raced both wide and evenly while having some traffic problems. A home bred by 'Unusual Heat', he was 6 back of that rival, but draws a much better post and is capable of factoring at a square price.

4th pick: #3 (Desmond Doss) (6-1) - Nick Alexander home bred raced wide and evenly when debuting in the same last race as both 'Jamming Eddy' and 'Unusually Handsome'. He was 6.5 lengths behind the former and just under a length in front of the latter. Grey colt can get a share with normal second-out improvement.
