Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (BOLD ENDEAVOR) (3-1) - The main speed, he's dropping back down after tiring badly here in a G2 stakes going nine furlongs Feb. 1. A winner of his prior pair facing similar foes as today's rivals, he has Joel Rosario aboard, and I like this one's chances.
2nd pick: #1 (Kershaw) (4-1) - Away from action since early June, he's back in So. California following an ill-fated invasion of Kentucky last Spring. Competitive in one of three at that time, he likes it here (5-1-1-2), fits at the level and distance, and could win this if ready.
3rd pick: #3 (Pepe Tono) (8-1) - Longshot stretches out after a wide and even 4th place finish sprinting here at this level Jan. 10. He likes this distance (7-2-0-3), and this 5yo is a threat at a square price.
