Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (RICKIE NINE TOE'S) (3-1) - Filly moves up in class after being competitive in three start facing weaker. She has a speed/stalking style and her outside post in this small field with give Raf Bejarano some early options.
2nd pick: #5 (On Mars) (2-1) - Away slowly in her debut here Jan 4, she recovered to set the pace and held gamely under pressure to check in 3rd of 9, beaten just under 2 lengths. Back on a quick turnaround for Phil D'Amato (19% 2nd time out), she's the probable favorite and an obvious win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (Yellow Shirt) (5-2) - One of two making their debuts, Reddam home bred by 'Square Eddie' is from the barn of Doug O'Neill 18% first out. Filly worked a bullet 5 furlongs from the gate in :59.80 at the San Luis Rey Center Jan 14 and is dangerous in this spot.
4th pick: #4 (Lucky Long Legs) (4-1) - From the same bar (Phil D'Amato) as 'On Mars', she's been away slowly from the gate in all four starts, but has finished within range in three of those attempts. A late threat.
