Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (NILEIST) (5-1) - Price play has been away since Nov 9 when he rallied to finish second at this tag and trip on the Remington Park turf. He's finished second in four of his last six on the grass and runs today off a trainer change to Andy Lerner, 8 of 23 (35%) with new arrivals in 2018-19.
2nd pick: #1 (Tastemaker) (8-5) - The morning line and probable favorite, he ships from Santa Anita where he was competitive in his last pair facing tougher. Lightly raced 5yo takes a big drop, has the rail, and it's noted he missed by a 1/2 length here facing tougher on the lawn back in Sept. of 2017. A win candidate at a short price.
3rd pick: #5 (Minister's Glory) (2-1) - Tommy Town home bred has finished third in all four starts here since coming off an eight-month layoff March 21. One was on the grass April 27 and this one-run type must be left in the mix.
