Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (ROCK 'N ON HOME) (9-2) - Very lightly raced, he's stretching out in distance and is making back-to-back starts, both for the first time. He chased the pace of a 'long gone' winner before weakening to finish 4th sprinting here at this tag and trip Feb. 27th. It was his first since debuting on the grass in late May of last year. He's worked twice since, and 4yo meets a weak field.

2nd pick: #2 (Spirit World) (2-1) - I had him on top the last time he ran, but 4yo performed poorly. That was a better field he ran against, and his 'figure' earned fits nicely with this less talented group. Dangerous today.

3rd pick: #6 (Carulli) (3-1) - On the sidelines since June 20, gelding is working steadily at San Luis Rey Downs for his return. Well backed in his first two starts back then, he was away very 'slowly' in each. Can factor if ready with an alert beginning.

4th pick: #8 (Attack) (10-1) - Longshot is the field's most experienced maiden and is stretching out in distance. Even paced type has grabbed seven small slices in 17 starts and is a factor, especially if the speed doesn't hold turning for home.
