Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (OLD INDIAN TRICK) (5-2) - Lightly raced colt tired late to finish 4th racing at this level going six furlongs June 16 at Santa Anita. Bet down to 8-5 favoritism that afternoon, he set a pressured pace before weakening in the final furlong. Tommy Town home bred has the rail and gets a slight edge today.

2nd pick: #6 (Livin On Prayer) (2-1) - The probable favorite, he was away slowly but raced well once in stride before finishing 2nd of 10, beaten 2.5 lengths when debuting for a $30K tag May 26 at Santa Anita. He's working steadily for this, and the move up to run for $50K is not a big deal as this field is weak for the level.

3rd pick: #3 (Jerry's Thunder) (4-1) - Very wide last out, he tired late to finish 5th of 10, beaten four lengths at this level June 16 at Santa Anita. Only a 1/2-length behind 'Old Indian Trick' that day, he must be left in what looks like a three horse win mix.
