Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (UBER STAR) (5-2) - The morning line favorite and a deserving one. 4yo rallied to miss by a 'nose' April 16 racing at this level and 9-furlong distance. $200K purchase is working frequently for this attempt and Bejarano is back aboard for the first time since early September.

2nd pick: #2 (Bottle Service) (12-1) - Longshot was a bit 'rank' last out while fighting jockey Stu Elliott most of the way. He tired that day but had been much sharper in his previous race. Speed/stalker can factor at a big price.

3rd pick: #1 (Fregosi) (8-1) - Another longshot, he's racing without blinkers for the first time. 3yo hasn't been beaten more than 4-lengths in any of his three appearances and draws a ground saving post.

4th pick: #8 (Legal Authority) (4-1) - He's racing third back from a 9.5-month layoff, is dropping into a claimer for the first time, and has blinkers off. 5yo fits with these and must be left in the mix.
