Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #12 (AMERICAN ACT) (5-2) - Veteran holds a big class edge over this field. He rallied while seven wide to finish second here at this level going 5.5-furlongs. The additional furlong he travels today is a big plus as is his outside post. Looks set for a winning effort.
2nd pick: #11 (Sargent Stadanko) (8-1) - Even-paced type rallied while 10-wide to finish sixth of twelve, four lengths behind 'American Act' here Feb 2. Amazingly he had finished third in eight straight starts prior to that. The move off the rail, the added distance, and the outside post work in his favor.
3rd pick: #8 (Silvertron) (15-1) - Interesting longshot lost all chance when he was away slowly following a stumbling start in the same last race as both 'American Act' and 'Sargent Stadanko' Feb 2. He has many races in his past that would make him a serious threat if repeatable.
4th pick: #10 (Oui Man) (9-2) - Stalker has been competitive in six straight starts dating back to early October. He won here at this tag Jan 18 to clear the 2l condition, then rallied to check in a close up third here at this condition Feb 6.
5th pick: #4 (Jack No) (4-1) - Speedy grey gelding is cutting back in distance after racing in three straight two-turn contests. He's won two of his last three sprinting here and can't be eliminated.
