Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (SHALL RETURN) (5-2) - A lightly raced filly, she missed by a 'neck' here at this tag and trip Jan. 10 in her first since a sharp maiden Nov. 8. This 3yo has a stalking style, Irad Ortiz Jr. stays aboard, and she gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #9 (Bourbon 'n Ditch) (7-2) - Unraced since Dec. 15, she ran well while wide facing tougher. Down in class, she's working fast, draws well and is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (Feature Creature) (5-1) - The filly is facing winners for the first time and is clearly getting better. Stalker has John Velazquez back on the re-ride and is a threat right back at a square price.
4th pick: #1 (Drama Free) (4-1) - She has early sped, drops in class, and has the rail. She tired last out facing tougher at this distance and should be involved every step.
