Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (SARGEANT DRIVE) (6-1) - He had some serious traffic issues when beaten 2 lengths here at this level going 8.5 furlongs May 25. It was his first race since March 10 and a career best overall. Home bred by 'Tapit' should love this 10 furlong trip and it's a plus that Javier Castellano stays with this 3-year-old.

2nd pick: #1 (Prompt) (5-2) - The probable favorite, he's lightly-raced and enters off a career best here June 8. Going 11 furlongs at this level in his first since Feb. 18, he rallied strongly to miss by a 'neck'. Only his third attempt, he draws a ground saving post and is an obvious win candidate.

3rd pick: #3 (Hampton Point) (12-1) - Long shot raced extremely wide after breaking from a tough outside post (10th of 10) in the same last race as 'Prompt'. He was 5.5 lengths behind him at the finish and can narrow that margin with today's much better post.

4th pick: #4 (Argonne) (5-1) - $260,000 son of 'Tizway' made up ground when losing by 2 lengths here May 25. Lightly-raced colt finished on even terms with 'Sargeant Drive' that afternoon and is capable of factoring with some improvement.
