Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (SOPHIE GERMAIN) (7-5) - The probable favorite, filly hasn't raced since an impressive maiden win here when making her debut Dec. 3. She rallied strongly that afternoon and was training steadily in Florida over the winter but did not start. She has the a ground saving post and her trainer (Chad Brown) wins at a 25% rate off of long layoffs.
2nd pick: #2 (Dance Queen) (4-1) - She also won her debut which came at Gulfstream Park going 7.5 furlongs for a $75,000 claiming price March 12. That gives her a recency edge on 'Sophie' and filly displayed both speed and gameness in her win.
3rd pick: #3 (Thirst for Truth) (15-1) - Filly is switching from dirt to turf, stretches out in distance, and moves up in class. Laurel shipper may grab a minor award at a big price in this small field.
