Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (HOOSIER ROAD) (4-1) - He has the rail and a speed/stalking style. Gelding finished 3rd here at this tag and trip May 21 in what was a positive effort. He was a bit more than a length behind today's rival 'Ajac,' but has more room for upside than that 5yo.
2nd pick: #10 (Ajac) (7-2) - As mentioned above, he was a bit more than a length in front of 'Hoosier Road' last out. He's another with a speed/stalking style and is racing third back from an 11-month layoff. A obvious win candidate.
3rd pick: #7 (Warren My Boy) (8-1) - He enters off an even effort here May 21. It was his second back from a six-month vacation, and he was two lengths behind 'Ajac' and one in back of 'Hoosier Road.' He's worked well since and should factor at a big price.
4th pick: #5 (Back Sheared Anvil) (3-1) - Always a tough call, this gelding is taking a big drop in his second start. He tired while wide when debuting here facing much tougher April 3. Along with he drop, trainer Rick Mandella is adding blinkers. 3yo could beat this crew if he has any talent.
5th pick: #6 (Lucky Logan) (5-1) - Speed/stalker is racing for the first time since Sept. 3rd. Competitive in two of his last three, he runs off a private trainer change to veteran Art Sherman.
