Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (LORD SIMBA) (5-2) - Very lightly-raced colt from the Baffert barn has won both starts in 2016 including score in a G3 sprint April 15. Race was her first facing winners and this $300K son of 'Discreet Cat' may have a very bright future.
2nd pick: #8 (Eastwood) (5-1) - He finished 2.5 lengths in back of 'Lord Simba' in a G3 sprint April 15. It was his first since early June of 2015. Seven-year-old has always had talent, but injuries and long layoffs have highlighted his career.
3rd pick: #3 (Kobe's Back) (9-2) - A stakes winner many times over, grey 6-year-old has developed a very bad habit of breaking slowly from the gate. He's done so in eight of his last nine starts and will need to leave with his field for any shot with his stretch run.
4th pick: #2 (Calculator) (7-2) - He's racing third back from a 7.5 month break and has been working fast for this assignment. His present form is questionable, but he's capable of impacting with his best.
