Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #8 (BUGGY BROWN) (7-5) - He's clearly the main speed and is taking a big drop for this attempt. Veteran set a pressured pace before weakening late to finish 4th facing $25,000 claimers April 10 at Keeneland. He's dropping to the local bottom ($5000 tag) and should win this in gate-to-wire fashion.

2nd pick: #1 (Swamp Ruler) (7-2) - 5yo raced both wide and evenly going 7 furlongs facing tougher in the Keeneland slop April19. It was his first since Feb 1 and he's brought back quickly, drops, and has the rail. A contender today.

3rd pick: #5 (Bourne in Nixa) (8-1) - A former stakes winner, he moves back to conventional dirt after a wide and even effort at this tag & trip on the poly surface at Turfway Park Jan 18. He's capable of contending but needs to get it back in gear for this attempt.

4th pick: #10 (Monday Confession) (15-1) - An easy winner at Turfway Park at this tag and trip March 22, he's won at Churchill in the past and has an outstanding record at this 6 furlong distance 11-5-1-2.
