Top pick: #4 (FEARLESS JACQ) (3-1) - Filly ships back from Monmouth where she finished second in a 5.5 furlong grass stakes won by a filly taking her thi3rd in a row. Speed/stalker won the $85K "Miss Otis" stakes on this surface going seven furlongs on May 19th, and has a sharp work on July 1st.

2nd pick: #5 (Bella Castani) (5-2) - The probable favorite, she's proven a handful for her rider in her last pair, and is reunited with Jose Lezcano, who is two for two on her. Very talented, she's cutting back in distance, and is a strong win candidate.

3rd pick: #7 (Exchange Cat) (8-1) - Price play finished second to "Castani" here April 27, then ran third behind "Jacq" on May 19th. Freshened up since, she's clearly improved since moving to the turf and draws a nice outside post for her presumed stalking tactics.

4th pick: #6 (Effie Trinket) (4-1) - Deep closer moves up in class after a career best when winning here going six furlongs on May 30th. Stretches out a furlong, and she should love the extra furlong of this stakes.
