Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (DUBDUBWATSON) (2-1) - With a trio of late scratches, this once promising 4-year-old becomes the top choice. Away since early Sept. of 2015, he's working fast for trainer Bob Baffert and can take this if ready.
2nd pick: #5 (Mr Pucci) (5-2) - Very lightly-raced, he tired badly facing tougher Dec. 9 at Los Alamitos. However, it was his first back from a 10 month layoff and he most likely needed the start. Drops and is a strong win candidate.
3rd pick: #9 (Sammy Wonder Stone) (8-1) - He enters off a carer best figure when he broke his maiden here going seven furlongs Jan 2. Clearly improved in his last pair, he has a shot at a square price if the pace is fast and/or contested.
