Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (CHELSEA CLOISTERS) (5-2) - Filly is one of two entered by trainer Wesley Ward and the pair race uncoupled. She went 6-1-4-0 last year and finished second facing males in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint (G1) going 5.5 furlongs Nov. 2 at Churchill Downs. She ran third in her 2019 debut in a $100K grass sprint April 12 at Keeneland, a contest where she was bumped heavily at the break and had to rally while 6-wide. I like her chances.
2nd pick: #7 (Positive Skew) (4-1) - Daughter of 'City Zip' has been freshened up since finishing fifth of six, beaten just over 2 lengths in a $125K stakes going a mile March 30 at Gulfstream. Sharp in her previous pair, she ships down from Saratoga where she's breezed four times on the famous Oklahoma Training Track. A stretch threat in the final furlong.
3rd pick: #6 (Stellar Agent) (2-1) - A $150K filly by 'More Than Ready', she showed plenty of talent and potential during a three race campaign in the latter third of 2018. She finished third in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies (G1) but following a 4-month layoff she was a disappointment in her seasonal debut March 9 at Tampa Bay Downs. She's cutting back in distance and can impact with her 'A' game.
4th pick: #1 (Moravia) (6-1) - English bred is from the same barn (Jorge Abreu) as 'Stellar Agent' and the pair race uncoupled. Filly went 4-1-1-0 racing in Ireland in 2018 and ended her 2yo campaign with a second place finish in Group 3. She raced evenly going a mile facing allowance foes at Keeneland April 18 in her No. American debut in a race she likely needed. She has the rail and should be competitive at a square price.
