Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (LITTLE NATALIA) (5-2) - Filly ships in from Gulfstream where she debuted at this $12,500 price tag July 12. Bet down to 7-2 in the eight-horse filed, she had traffic issues at the break that weren't her own doing and ran evenly once in stride while beaten almost 11 lengths. Training steadily there for her return, she gets a slight edge in this one.
2nd pick: #3 (Explosive Package) (7-5) - The morning line and probable favorite, she rallied to finish 3rd here going seven furlongs for a $16K tag March 21. It was her second back following a 5.5-month layoff and her first in blinkers. Trainer Derek Ryan is having a strong meet, and he drops her a bit while cutting her back a furlong. A win candidate.
3rd pick: #8 (She's a Fair Catch) (4-1) - She raced evenly while not involved after stumbling badly here going seven furlongs for a $10K tag April 8. It was her first here after nibbling in two of four starts at Delta Downs, and she may get a slice with a late rally.
