Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (MONEY ILLUSION) (5-2) - The probable favorite, he's switching from dirt to turf, is stretching out in distance, and is dropping into a claimer. He was never involved when debuting in a dirt sprint at Gulfstream Park Feb. 10th. Heavily bet that day, he's working fast for this, and trainer Chad Brown has won with 12 of 23 (52%) on this particular drop in class.

2nd pick: #2 (Tizacinch) (8-1) - Longshot ships from Gulfstream where he was competitive in three of five starts this past winter racing on the grass. He fits well with this group and is dangerous at a big price.

3rd pick: #8 (Balfe's Corner) (5-1) - Grey colt put in a strong late rally to check in 2nd of 12, beaten just over a length racing at this tag going a mile on the Aqueduct grass April 23. A threat today with a repeat of that performance.

4th pick: #10 (Nice Try) (6-1) - Very lightly raced, he has some speed, is dropping in class, and is making back-to-back starts for the first time. 3yo son of 'Giant's Causeway' should factor from gate-to-wire in this spot.
