Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (KUSTOM FOR KARL) (3-1) - She showed sharp early speed and had some traffic issues when finishing 4th of 11, missing by almost 3 lengths debuting here at this level and distance Jan 11. She's worked twice since and the impressive Italian jockey Umberto Rispoli stays aboard.

2nd pick: #7 (Rakassah) (8-5) - Irish import is the morning line and probable favorite. She missed by a length here in her No. American debut Jan 11 and was just under 2 lengths in front of 'Kustom for Karl'. Filly has worked three times since and I could have easily made her the top selection.

3rd pick: #8 (Dipping In) (6-1) - Reddam runner is cutting back in distance and moving up in class. She ran well going a mile here for a $75K tag Jan 12 and is capable of getting a share at a square price.

4th pick: #6 (Colombian Gold) (8-1) - On the sidelines since Oct 26, she runs off a private trainer change to Peter Miller, 22% with new arrivals since Jan 1 of 2019. Well-bred filly may get a minor award off of the positive barn switch.
