Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (JUNE BUG BEN) (5-2) - He enters in good form and speed/stalker is racing first off a claim. The distance and level are fine and this 4-year-old won a $30K stakes last August in Boise facing fellow Idaho breds. Can win this if he holds his form off the barn switch.
2nd pick: #2 (Hit a Homerun) (3-1) - Lightly-raced Calif. bred miss by a 'neck' here at this level and distance March 14. It matched his career best which came here in his previous race. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #4 (Rock n' Cat) (7-2) - Very fast from the gate, he pressed a quick pace last out and weakened late to finish 1.5-lengths behind 'Hit a Homerun.' He tries hard most every time and all his success has come locally 8-1-4-0.
4th pick: #8 (Smokeshow City) (2-1) - Grey gelding enters in good form and is racing first off a negative barn change following a claim. He's been competitive facing tougher in the past and is a threat if he holds his form off the trainer switch.
