Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (WEST COAST) (8-5) - Talented colt from the Baffert barn ships back from Keeneland where he missed by a 'head' in the Lexington Stakes (G3) there April 15. He had broken his maiden here at this distance in his previous start and has been training very fast since coming back from Kentucky. The likely winner from his inside post.
2nd pick: #5 (Magical Mystery) (8-1) - Expensive ($350,000) 4-year-old broke his maiden here going a mile Feb. 12 in his first race since Aug 19. Sent to the grass March 9 in his first facing winners, he tired and has been freshened up since. Back on the dirt and he should factor at a square price.
3rd pick: #4 (My Italian Babbo) (4-1) - Calif bred moves way up in class but does so in sharp form. He defeated weaker at this distance April 16 but the figure earned was solid. Five-year-old has more early speed than most and that's in his favor.
4th pick: #2 (General Ike) (6-1) - He's been away from action since Nov. 13 of 2015. Working above average, he has some talent, but the long absence works against him. May grab a minor award if ready.
