Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (REFINANCE) (8-5) - Very lightly raced 4yo has been freshened up since May 27 when he finished 2nd here at this distance facing a bit tougher. Home bred has a fine series of works on his morning tab and comes from a hot barn (Chris Clement).
2nd pick: #6 (Love and Care) (5-1) - Gelding cost $350,000 and has earned back $15K of that huge sum. He raced a bit 'head strong' before weakening here in a grass race July 1. It was his first since late May, and trainer Rudy Rodriguez has him spotted where he should factor with his best.
3rd pick: #7 (Schott) (6-1) - Another expensive ($450,000) disappointment, he hasn't seen action since Jan. 6. His work pattern is solid, including a very quick half-mile breeze here July 1. Can impact at a square price.
