Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (AMARIAH GRACE) (7-2) - Very lightly-raced daughter of 'Sky Mesa' chased today's rival 'Zenita' before weakening to finish second, 3.5 lengths behind that rival. A solid effort, it was her first race since Sept 12. Her barn is preparing her for a spring/summer campaign at Canterbury Park and she should move forward in her second off the 5.5 month layoff.
2nd pick: #4 (Zenita) (7-5) - The probable favorite, she's the lone multiple winner and all three career wins have been at Turf Paradise. Very quick fro the gate, all of her wins have come when she was able to clear off in the first 1/4 mile. An obvious win candidate.
3rd pick: #7 (Our Lucky Dream) (2-1) - Lasix is added to grey Cal bred who was an easy maiden winner here when debuting Feb 21. The figure earned fits with the top two selections and with only one start, this daughter of 'Lucky Pulpit' has a lot of room for upside.
