Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (ALDRIN) (3-1) - Speedy 5yo has finished second in two straight here at this level since coming off a 12-week break Jan 28. In shape, working above average, and he gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #1 (Giant Influence) (5-2) - Beautifully bred and lightly raced, he's facing winners and is stretching out in distance, both for the first time. Speed/stalker has the rail, is working fast, and this 4yo has plenty of room for upside. A strong win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (Indygo Holiday) (5-1) - He drops back down after racing very rank in a $100K stakes here Feb 26. He had finished second at this level in his previous pair and should factor in this spot.
4th pick: #6 (Action Hero) (8-1) - New gelding hasn't raced since in 12.5-months. Stalker has ability, is working steadily, and Bejarano is aboard. Can factor if ready, but the long absence is a negative.
