Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (Red Carpet Cat) (7-2) - Gelding drops to a new low following a troubled fourth place finish for a $30K claiming price May 6. Speed/stalker had some traffic issues that afternoon, and along with today's drop he sheds nine lbs with apprentice Roman taking over the riding chores.

2nd pick: #1 (Zachian) (3-1) - Lightly-raced 4-year-old finished second here at this price tag April 23. Only his second start, he moves from an outside post to the rail and is a serious player in this spot.

3rd pick: #6 (Rockin My Mojo) (6-1) - On the sidelines for a year, he's working fast and drops down for his return to action. Home bred showed good early speed before tiring in his only start and can factor at a square price if ready.

4th pick: #3 (Hoppity ) (4-1) - Another that's lightly-raced, he has early speed and has finished fourth here in both starts. Well backed both times, he should be involved turning into the stretch. Three-year-old needs to do a bit better from there to the wire.
