Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (PRINCESS AKRIS) (7-2) - Nicely bred filly ships from Tampa Bay Downs where she missed by a 'neck' going 8.5 furlongs on the turf March 2 facing 'open' special weight foes. She's been competitive on the dirt in the past and is meeting fellow New York breds for the first time.
2nd pick: #3 (Scripted) (5-2) - Lightly-raced she's stretching out to a mile after finishing a pacesetting second when facing slightly tougher here March 25 going 6.5 furlongs. Heavily backed in both starts, home bred should be involved every step.
3rd pick: #8 (Lucky Bug) (4-1) - Filly by 'Lookin At Lucky' cost $255,000 as a yearling back in 2015 and is making only her second start. She showed little when debuting here a year ago facing tougher and is dropped down to race for $30K in her return. In a top barn (Rudy Rodriguez), he has Irad Ortiz Jr. aboard, and this 4-year-old can win this if ready.
4th pick: #10 (Forever Rising) (10-1) - Daughter of 'Ghostzapper' has been competitive in 4-of-6 locally and has been sharp in 3-of-4 at this trip. One-run type draws a fine outside post at this one turn mile and is capable of impacting at a big price with her 'A' game.
