Top pick: #7 (SUSAN BE GOOD) (2-1) - She's been sharp in three straight at this level on the grass and stalker draws outside of the speed types. In shape and the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #6 (Three Blondes) (5-2) - The main speed, mare has finished second in two of three at this level since returning from a 17 month layoff in early June. Four-year-old will be involved from start-to-finish and is a strong win candidate.
3rd pick: #3 (Lethal Story) (10-1) - No-speed type has yet to crack the exacta in 16 starts, but has been competitive against tougher fields than this several times in the past. The faster the pace, the better her chances.
4th pick: #2 (Tangelo) (5-1) - Lightly-raced Reddam home-bred has been freshened up since a pair of good efforts this past spring at Santa Anita. Speed/stalker is working nicely and will be attempting a two-turn distance for the first time.
