Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (ZAINO BOYZ) (3-1) - The main speed, he ships back from Oaklawn where he tired late to finish 4th in a $100K stakes for fellow Arkansas-breds April 12. He won a sprint stakes here at this distance by six lengths Dec. 7, is working fast, and will be tough in this spot.

2nd pick: #2 (Tomato Bill) (5-2) - A lightly raced $500,000 colt by 'More Than Ready,' he tired while wide in his seasonal debut April 26 at Gulfstream. Stakes placed as a 2yo at Saratoga last July, he's a threat in his second back following bit more than a 6.5-month layoff.

3rd pick: #7 (Indy Ride) (10-1) - He's been very sharp in his last three local sprints and was a winner here going 6.5 furlongs for a $25K tag April 26. Stalker draws outside of what may be a fast and/or contested pace, and that's to his advantage.

4th pick: #1 (Silvery Enough) (7-2) - Gulfstream shipper won by a 'neck' there at this distance April 4 when facing optional-$50K claimers/SAL $50K foes. He has the rail, trainer Bob Hess, Jr. has Dan Centeno aboard, and this grey gelding must be left the mix.
