Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1a (BENEVOLENCE) (8-5) - He's coupled in the wagering with # 1 'Hembree'. Veteran gelding finished 2nd here at this tag going 6 furlongs March 16 in his first back from an 8 week freshening. He's worked since, draws a fine outside post at this 7 furlong distance, and will be tough in this spot.
2nd pick: #7 (Lucky Town) (4-1) - Speed/stalker finished 3rd here going 6.5 furlongs facing starter-allowance foes at this $50K level March 30. He had missed by a 'neck' in his previous start (Feb 15) and is a contender today.
3rd pick: #5 (Benefactor) (7-2) - Kentucky shipper drops in class and shortens up in distance. Competitive in al three previous starts on conventional dirt, He's nicely spotted by trainer Mike Maker and must be left in the mix.
4th pick: #6 (Fleet Irish) (6-1) - No-speed type is capable of impacting with his best, but will need a fast and/or contested pace for anything more than a minor award.
