Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #9 (HOOSIER ROAD) (3-1) - NEW gelding drops a bit in class after weakening late following a tough trip between horses last out while setting a very quick pace. Freshened up since April 10, he's been working fast at Los Alamitos.
2nd pick: #4 (Spirit World) (2-1) - The probable favorite, he's finished second in three of his last four starts and missed by a 'head' at this tag April 28 at Los Alamitos. Speed/stalker earned a career best figure that day and is an obvious win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (Glitter's Song) (6-1) - One of two making their debuts, he has the rail and has some good works showing over at San Luis Rey Downs. In a capable barn (Cliff Sise Jr.) and he has Marty Garcia interested.
4th pick: #3 (Warren My Boy) (8-1) - He's been competitive in four of his last five, all coming in dirt sprints at this $20K tag. His best figures don't match the top two picks and a minor award looks like his ceiling.
