Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (KENJIISLUCKY) (4-1) - He finished a troubled third here at this tag going 6-furlongs Jan 23. It was his first start in three months and he was forced in, coming out of the chute on the backside. Trainer Bob Diodoro brings him back in a month and stretch runner should get a nice pace set up.
2nd pick: #3 (Bad Read Sanchez) (2-1) - The morning line favorite, he's taking a big drop in class for his third off almost a nine month layoff. Highly thought of earlier in his career, it's looks like his connections want to pick up a purse while having him claimed away. Working fast and an obvious strong win candidate.
3rd pick: #4 (Prince Valiant) (5-2) - Un-raced since Nov 13, he finished second that day at Del Mar facing tougher. Working above average here for his return, the top two picks have a recency edge on him. Must be left in the small mix despite that fact.
