Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (JUMPIMG ON CLOUDS) (4-1) - She's moving up a bit class while shortening up a furlong. Filly has finished second in her last pair both for a $7,500 claiming price. Three-year-old draws outside of the speed and that's to her advantage.

2nd pick: #6 (Carson's Katie) (6-1) - Grey filly ships back from Louisiana Downs where she tired badly May 8 when facing much tougher. She missed by a 'neck' here at this tag and trip in her previous start and is a win candidate with a repeat of that effort.

3rd pick: #9 (Unconventional) (5-2) - Home bred finished second when debuting here at this level going five furlongs May 10. Trainer Sam Breaux brings her back quickly and has her going a 1/16th farther. The morning line favorite, but she doesn't rate too small a price.

4th pick: #5 (Miss Rippinlips) (3-1) - Bet down to favoritism in the same May 10 race as 'Unconventional,' filly broke slowly while finishing a distant third, seven lengths back of that rival. Can factor in this spot with an alert beginning.
