Top pick: #10 (WAIT TIL DAWN) - Nice debut at saratoga saw this beautifully-bred filly race close-up through-out and finish third of 10, beaten just under two lengths. In the Pletcher barn (29% 2nd time out) and this home-bred is working fine for this and draws a nice post. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #6 (Fashion's Flight) - $390,000 daughter of "Dixie Union" began her career in England and held her own in a pair of starts at the prestigious Newmarket meet in August. Races with lasix added and that can dramatically improve a young horse. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #7 (Assateague) - Filly by "Stormy Atlantic" showed good early speed while racing wide and tired in the last furlong of her debut at Saratoga in a sprint August 5. Working fast since and trainer Mike Matz will stretch her out in distance today. Dangerous runner.
