Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (IKE) (2-1) - Debuting colt from the Baffert barn (30% first out) has the usual set of fast works from the trainer, and this home bred meets a weak looking group for the level. If he runs to his a.m drills, the rest are in trouble.
2nd pick: #4 (More Honor) (8-5) - He broke slowly, but still managed to finish 2nd when debuting here on Jan. 1. The colt that defeated him by 9.5 lengths disappointed when finishing 3rd yesterday in the San Vincente Stakes (G2). Stretch threat and the likely winner if 'Ike' isn't ready.
3rd pick: #3 (El Asesino) (15-1) - Longshot raced evenly here in a grass sprint for a $75,000 claiming price Feb. 2. He's brought back quickly and moves to the dirt at the same distance. Ruis runner may grab a minor award at a big price.
