Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (EMMZY) (2-1) - $370,000 purchase has had legitimate excuses in all four sprints up to this time. Competitive in three straight, trainer Bob Baffert is stretching her out around two-turns for the first time. That's a 21% wining move by the ban and this speed/stalker will be tough to bat in this spot.
2nd pick: #3 (Hayley's Comment) (9-2) - She raced evenly when sprinting here at this level when debuting May 5. Filly is bred to like this longer distance and trainer Kristin Mulhall had her work a bullet five furlongs June 1.
3rd pick: #1 (Caradini) (5-2) - The field's most experienced maiden has been been competitive in seven of her ten starts racing on real dirt. She's finished second here in her last pair of local starts and speed/stalker breaks from the rail.
4th pick: #2 (Eileen's Girl) (5-1) - $280,000 daughter of 'Medaglia d'Oro' is moving from turf to dirt in her second back from a bit more than eight month layoff. She has some speed, is working fast, and 3-year-old is making back-to-back starts for the first time.
