Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (RISKY VENTURE) (3-1) - He's dropping in class while switching back to the dirt and shortening up in distance. Five-year-old just missed here at this level and distance in his previous start (Feb. 13) and can take this with a repeat of that effort.
2nd pick: #5 (Ekati Wildcat) (7-2) - Veteran moves back up in class after finishing a close up third here going 8.5 furlongs for a $3,500 price tag Feb. 25. Claimed that afternoon by Dan Dennison, stretch runner is capable sprinting on the dirt and has back class to call upon.
3rd pick: #7 (Cowboy Cliff) (6-1) - Very lightly-raced 4-year-old is working fast for his first start since winning two of three during the summer of 2016. Speedy sort is dangerous at a big price if ready.
4th pick: #2 (Intelicrypt) (5-1) - Quick from the gate, 4-year-old is another that's working fast for his first off a layoff (July 7). Idaho bred won two of three last/spring summer at Arapahoe Park and is a major factor if ready.
