Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (MARKET KING) (5-1) - Colt probably would have been a better runner if they had gelded him, but he sold for $500K and is a son of one of the top stallions in No. America, 'Into Mischief.' He finished 3rd here 12 days ago on a sloppy track while facing tougher and is back quickly while dropping to a new low. I like his prospects.

2nd pick: #12 (Attain Success) (4-1) - He raced both wide and evenly here at this tag and trip March 7 and was claimed that afternoon by the leading trainer at this meet, Robertino Diodoro. That's a strong 31% winning angle, and this 5yo draws a fine outside post for his stalking style. I believe he's dangerous today off the positive barn change.

3rd pick: #7 (Take Charge Now) (12-1) - Speedy sort drops in price while cutting back in distance. He tired late last out after chasing the pace of a 'much the best' winner for a $50K tag on April 2. Capable sprinting and at this $30K tag, he's racing third back off a long layoff and is a threat at a big price.

4th pick: #6 (Jack Van Berg) (8-1) - Stalker tired badly here for a $50K tag April 4, but had missed by only a 'neck' in his previous start for a $40,000 claiming price. 4yo drops to a new low and is capable of impacting at a square price.
