Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (FANCY SHOES) (7-2) - Very lightly-raced 7-year-old is the main speed of this 8.5 furlong contest. He tired here for twice this tag going seven furlongs March 31. It was his first race in two months and gelding is dropping to a level he's run well at in the past. He's 4-1-0-2 at this trip and will be tough on the lead.

2nd pick: #3 (Midnight Rumble) (6-1) - Longshot enters off a career best here at this level going a mile March 16. He pressed a quick pace and held well to finish third. He's worked four times since and is racing third back from a six month layoff. Dangerous at a square price.

3rd pick: #7 (Hot Paris Night) (3-1) - Since coming of almost an eight week break Dec 26, this stalker has gone 5-2-2-1. He won here for a $12,500 claiming price March 31 and earned by far a career best figure. He's worked since and is a major player if his latest effort is repeatable.

4th pick: #6 (Kiss Limit) (5-2) - Lightly-raced 4-year-old drops in price, switches from turf to dirt, and is stretching out in distance. Working fast at Los Alamitos and his lone win came going a mile on the dirt at Churchill a year ago.
