Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (ORZO) (3-1) - On the sidelines since Oct. 15, no-speed type runs of a private trainer change to Arnaud Delacour. Training steadily, grey filly fits with her best and gets a timid vote if ready.

2nd pick: #10 (Mighty Mini) (6-1) - Very lightly-raced, speedy filly has won two of three here, the latest coming at this $16K tag in an 'off the turf' contest at this trip Jan. 29. Bred to handle the grass, 3-year-old is a big threat on the lead.

3rd pick: #3 (Teufels and Roses) (5-1) - The morning line favorite, she rallied to finish a close up second here at this level and distance Feb. 9. A career best overall and she has a recency edge on 'Orzo'. An obvious contender.

4th pick: #2 (Lemon Grove) (7-2) - Another with no early speed, home bred is lightly-raced and is dropping in class. Four-year-old had races last summer and fall in Kentucky that make her a big threat if repeatable.
