Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #8 (SURVEY) (4-1) - He ships in from Oaklawn where he was never involved going 6 furlongs on a sloppy track for a$30,000 price tag April 18. It was his second off a claim for $25K by Bob Diodoro for $25K March 1 and he drops him well under that price for this attempt. Competitive facing tougher in the past, I give him a slight edge.
2nd pick: #7 (Freefall) (9-2) - Blinkers go on colt who raced wide here for a $30K tag just eight days ago. Trainer Rodolphe Brisset drops him to a new low on the quick turnaround and this $260,000 son of 'Tiznow' is a strong win candidate.
3rd pick: #4 (Verhalen) (7-2) - This colt is working steadily for his first stats since March 1 of 2018. Trainer Joe Sharp (31% off of long layoffs) has him taking a huge drop and 4yo is a big threat if ready.
4th pick: #9 (Freemore) (5-1) - Gelding drops to a new low after tiring badly on a sloppy track at Oaklawn for a $30K tag April 18. He draws well and has caught off surfaces in both starts on the dirt. In the mix.
