Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (ELECTRIC) (5-2) - One of two entered by trainer Linda Rice, and the pair race uncoupled. This $450,000 daughter of 'Smart Strike' rallied to finish 3rd when debuting here at this level going seven furlongs Sept. 15. Rice wins at a 30% rate second time out, and this filly gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #5 (In It for the Gold) (5-1) - Filly showed some talent and promise during her 2yo season in 2016, but she runs today for only the second time since returning from 8.5-month layoff in early July. This is her first ever on the grass, and it's a surface she's bred to like. Price play.
3rd pick: #1 (Gifted Lady) (6-1) - This daughter of 'Distorted Humor' cost $725,000 as a yearling back in Sept. of 2015. She has early speed, draws the rail, and is another trying the turf for the first time. Longshot has taken betting action in all four starts and may have more talent than shown up to this point.
4th pick: #8 (Equalityforall) (3-1) - The second of the Linda Rice trained pair, $775K purchase is shortening up in distance, and is racing with blinkers on. She showed some ability over the summer and should be competitive in this spot.
