Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (HE'S THE DUDE) (5-2) - Very lightly-raced, he's moving from turf to dirt and dropping down for his second off an eight month layoff. Gelding by 'Invasor' raced evenly here facing tougher on the grass Feb 10 and was only beaten four lengths. Can beat this rather poor looking lot.

2nd pick: #4 (Full Package) (3-1) - Four-year-old has been competitive in three straight at this meet racing at this tag and trip. Stalker draws a good post and is a strong win candidate, especially if 'He's The Dude' doesn't handle the main track.

3rd pick: #8 (Assist) (5-1) - Even paced runner finished third here last out, bur was 2 1/2 lengths behind 'Full Package.' He was 'bumped' at the start that day and in his previous race was sharper with a clean beginning.

4th pick: #1 (Chromos) (6-1) - Another even-paced type, home bred 4-year-old is making his fifth start at the meet. He's been beaten twice by 'Assist' this year, so he'll need to do better for anything more than a minor award.
