Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (POWDER) (3-1) - Consistent mare ships back from Golden Gate Fields where she tired facing tougher on the Tapeta surface there. She had finished second in four straight on the dirt prior to that and has gone 9-1-4-2 here in the past.

2nd pick: #10 (Duranga) (5-2) - Freshened up since April 5, mare finished third of seven, beaten 1.5 lengths going 7 furlongs here for a $12.5K tag that afternoon. One-run type is a serious late threat if able to avoid a wide trip.

3rd pick: #7 (Rizzi's Honors) (12-1) - Very fast from the gate, longshot has been idle for the past two months. Working steadily for this attempt. she's won here in the past and 6yo catches a field without mostly stalkers entered. She has a shot at a big price.

4th pick: #8 (Red Shelby) (10-1) - Another longshot, mare ships from Golden gate Fields where she tired for an $8,000 tag May 12. Claimed that day by Reed Saldana, he brings her back quickly and switches her to conventional dirt. Trainer is having a strong meet 25-5-4-4 and this 5yo is in the mix.
