Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (CASCADE ROCK) (3-1) - Competitive in three straight at this level, Irish import stretches back out after missing by a length here going 6.5 furlongs Dec. 29. He has more early speed than most and that gives him an edge.

2nd pick: #4 (Gosilently) (4-1) - New York bred has gone 8-0-5-3 on the grass since March 31. Speed/stalker ran third here in his West Coast debut Jan. 13 and is an obvious threat.

3rd pick: #1 (Combat Zone) (5-2) - Strong finisher has finished second in three straight at this level and was just in front of 'Gosilently' here Jan. 13. $450K son of 'War Front' must be left in the mix.

4th pick: #5 (Frankincense) (5-1) - Four-year-old by the brilliant European sensation 'Frankel' rallied while wide to finish within close range of both 'Combat Zone' and 'Gosilently' when debuting Jan. 13. Working fast since he's a major player at a square price with just minimal improvement.
