Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (MEANINGLESS BANTER) (7-5) - The probable favorite, she's one of two fillies entered by trainer Wade Rarick, and the pair race uncoupled. No. California shipper has been racing evenly facing tougher. Working fast locally, she can make her Turf Paradise debut a winning one.
2nd pick: #7 (Tiz a Redneck Girl) (2-1) - She rallied to finish 2nd here at this claiming price Nov. 16th. It was her first in blinkers, and 4yo has now been competitive in three of her last four. Stretch threat.
3rd pick: #6 (Kelly and Cola) (4-1) - The second of the Rarick pair, she's been on the sidelines since showing little when debuting in late April facing tougher at Los Alamitos. Working steadily, she could factor if ready.
4th pick: #8 (Doberge) (12-1) - Not a win candidate, but longshot stayed on until mid-stretch last out. Louisiana bred may grab a minor award at a big price.
