Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (PRICEDTOPERFECTION) (3-1) - Well backed when debuting Aug 23 at Saratoga filly rallied while wide to finish third racing at this level and distance. She's worked 5-times since for a 32% second out barn (Chad Brown). Sold for $230,000 this past April she has leading rider Irad Ortiz Jr. back on the re-ride.

2nd pick: #9 (Alto Belle) (7-2) - Filly missed by a 'head' here over only three rivals when debuting in an 'off the turf' contest at this trip on a muddy surface Sept 13. She's worked twice for trainer Todd Pletcher (23% second time out) and has John Velazquez back aboard.

3rd pick: #12 (Girl's Secret) (6-1) - Daughter of 'Giant's Causeway' cost $500,000 a year ago as a Keeneland sales yearling. Filly raced both wide and evenly when finishing third when debuting on the Saratoga turf at this level and distance Aug 16. Well beaten by 'Alto Belle' next out on a muddy main track, she can factor on her return to the grass.

4th pick: #7 (Miss Aja Brown) (12-1) - Blinkers go on filly by 'Big Brown' who missed by a 'head' Sept 7 at Saratoga. Speedy sort has raced better since moving to the turf and is a threat with some additional improvement.

5th pick: #3 (Transact) (15-1) - She tired badly when debuting in a dirt sprint at Saratoga Aug 2. Freshened up for the past 2 1/2 months, filly by 'Hard Spun' may factor at a huge price as she moves to the infield and stretches out in distance.
