Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (LAMBO LUXX) (5-2) - Veteran has been sharp in three straight, and speed/stalker won here at this tag going six furlongs March 4. He's won seven of 25 on conventional dirt, has the rail, and gets a slight edge.

2nd pick: #2 (Mesa Sky) (3-1) - He was involved every step when beaten a 'head' here by 'Lambo Luxx' at this tag March 4. It was his first start since Nov. 26, and he runs today fresh off a claim by owner/trainer Dave Jacobson (17% off the barn change). Lightly raced 5yo has back class and is a very strong win candidate.

3rd pick: #4 (Bargaining) (6-1) - He was a winner here by a 'head' over today's rival 'Four Gaels' at this level and distance Feb. 8. Speed/stalker has been competitive in six of his last eight and should be again in this spot.

4th pick: #8 (Four Gaels) (6-1) - As just mentioned above, he was beaten a 'head' here by 'Bargaining' at this tag and trip Feb. 8. Veteran has been competitive in eight of his last 10, and he draws outside of the main speed types today. Think he can factor at a square price.
