Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (PROFESSOR SNAPE) (5-1) - Speed/stalker has been competitive in six straight starts without winning. He drops back down following a 3rd place finish here in an allowance June 7, and I like that he draws outside of the other speed types today.
2nd pick: #3 (Full Salute) (9-2) - Very fast from the gate, the rail is his for the taking at the beak. In shape and in a winning barn (Dan Gargan), this consistent gelding should be in this every step.
3rd pick: #5 (Still Krz) (7-2) - Another that's quick from the gate, he's been freshened up for the past three months. Veteran has beaten tougher many times in the past, and his trainer Jay Servis is 11 for 22 (50%) at this meet. He also wins at a 26% rate off of long layoffs.
4th pick: #4 (Morning Buzz) (4-1) - Veteran finished 3rd here May 17, breaking a four race win streak. Only a 1/2 length in back of 'Full Salute' last out, he must be left in the mix.
