Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #11 (CECILE'S DIAMOND) (5-1) - Lightly raced filly has early speed and is taking a sharp drop in her first since April 21. The last three of her works are well above average, and she can take today's finale at a square price if ready.
2nd pick: #4 (Motutapu) (3-1) - The morning line favorite, she's been on the sidelines for the the past 12.5 months. 4yo missed by a 'nose' here at this claiming price when last in action, and she has some fine works showing over at Los Alamitos.
3rd pick: #5 (Warren's Homey Bee) (7-2) - Mare rallied to finish 3rd at this level Oct. 27th at Santa Anita. It was her first since Aug. 21st when 5yo checked in 2nd here at this claiming price. Stretch threat.
4th pick: #1 (Ghost Lady) (15-1) - Longshot hasn't shown much in either start, but was wide first out before she broke slowly Oct. 1st at Santa Anita. Freshened up for the past seven weeks, she may grab a share with an alert beginning.
5th pick: #3 (Turf Club Queen) (12-1) - Speed/stalker, nearing her seventh birthday, is still in search of her first win. Mare has picked-up minor awards in half of her 14 starts and must be left in the mix.
