Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (MISSILE BOMB) (9-2) - Veteran moves up in class following a very sharp win going 6 furlongs facing $50K starter-allowance foes May 18. He has an outstanding record on dirt 24-10-6-3, is 6 for 8 at this distance, and is 6 for 7 at Belmont. In career best form, 6yo can beat these at a square price.
2nd pick: #5 (Tap Master) (6-1) - A home bred by 'Tapit', he set a quick pace and held gamely to check in a close up third here at this level going 7 furlongs May 10. 4yo gets a big rider upgrade to Many Franco and should be involved every step.
3rd pick: #2 (Payne) (2-1) - The morning line and probable favorite, he rallied to finish second here May 10 and was a 'nose' in front of 'Tap Master'. Promising sort hadn't run since breaking his maiden here at this distance July 6 and is an obvious win candidate at a short price.
