Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (ADAIR) (3-1) - Lightly raced, he's taking on winners for the first time. He was almost an 11-length winner going six furlongs here for a $20K tag the day he broke his maiden (Feb. 27th). He's worked four times since, is well spotted, and draws a fine outside post at this seven-furlong distance.

2nd pick: #1 (Prince Valiant) (2-1) - Very fast from the gate, he's finished 2nd in three straight starts. The latest came here at this level going six furlongs March 4. By far a career best, it came second back from almost a 100-day layoff. He has the rail and is a major danger on the lead.

3rd pick: #3 (Woody's Folly) (5-1) - He's dropping in class, switching from turf to dirt, and is shortening up in distance. Stretch runner raced both wide and evenly facing tougher going a mile on the grass March 20. It was his first since Jan. 9th, and he's brought back quickly for this by veteran Bill Spawr.

4th pick: #2 (Deep Consideration) (10-1) - Recent maiden winner did so here at this distance March 10. It was his second since coming from the East Coast late in 2015. Colt is the only horse entered with a win at this seven-furlong trip.
