Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (FOREST BLUE) (5-2) - Hard hitter moves up in class having won three straight when racing on the local dirt. He scored easily here May 18 facing weaker in his first when following a re-claim by trainer Jeff Mullins (7-for-16, 44%) at this meet. The choice to win again.

2nd pick: #7 (Texas Two Step) (7-2) - Veteran finished a close up third at this level May 27 and did so following a poor break. Speed/stalker is from the barn of leading trainer Peter Miller and should be involved every step.

3rd pick: #1 (Junior Gilliam) (3-1) - Named after a solid infielder for the Dodgers of yesteryear, he's been freshened up since four straight sharp starts here earlier on the calendar. Strong finisher has the rail, is in career best form, and he's gone 4-2-2-0 on the local dirt.
