Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (MOONDANCE JOY) (8-1) - Price play is racing off almost a three-month break. Trainer Tom Albertrani drops her in class and switches her from grass to dirt. 4yo is capable on the dirt, and strong finisher should get a fast pace to rally into.
2nd pick: #1 (Harlan's Belle) (4-1) - Speed/stalker races first off a Gary Gullo claim (22%). He has her at the proper level and distance, and she breaks from the rail. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #6 (Blind Devotion) (5-1) - Very lightly raced, mare has fine early speed, and runs fresh off a Chris Englehart claim (19%). She doesn't need the lead to be competitive, and the new barn has her nicely spotted. Must be left in the mix.
4th pick: #5 (Majestic Jessica) (7-2) - Even paced type is dropping in class in her second off a Bob Barbara claim. Stalker fits with her best, and both career wins have come at this distance.
