Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (BLUEGRASS PREVAILS) (2-1) - Speedy gelding moves up in class after missing by a 1/2 length facing weaker going 7-furlongs at Aqueduct April 15. In career best form, 3-year-old was an easy maiden winner here last September in his only previous local race.

2nd pick: #3 (Ganador) (6-1) - Price play has been competitive in three straight starts at this level after moving up in class in early March. Veteran has as many lifetime wins (six) as the rest of the field combined, but he's always found this first-level allowance for fellow state breds a bit more than he can handle. This field drew weak for the condition, so he has a shot at a square price.

3rd pick: #1 (Love That Jazz) (8-5) - A stakes winner last year as a 2-year-old, he went 6-1-2-1 and banked $116K. Un-raced since Nov 21, he's training nicely, has early speed, and is breaking from the rail. A win candidate if ready, but he most certainly will be over-bet.
