Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (GENTRIFIED) (8-5) - The probable favorite, he ships back from Golden Gate Fields where he finished an even fourth on the Tapeta surface facing tougher going longer. He missed by a 1/2 length here in his previous start at this $30K tag and gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #2 (Red Carpet Cat) (7-2) - Lightly-raced and speedy, he raced evenly here facing tougher going 5.5 furlongs Feb. 2. Bet down to favoritism that day, he was beaten 4.5 lengths in a contest that saw the winner and third place finished score next out. Dangerous today.
3rd pick: #7 (Wilbon) (6-1) - One of two making their debuts, he has a steady work tab at San Luis Rey Downs showing. He draws a fine outside post at this distance and need not be much to factor against this group.
4th pick: #5 (Supreme Giant) (8-1) - Even-paced type has finished third in half of his 10 lifetime starts. Capable of grabbing another share, but would need a fast/and or contested pace for anything more than that.
