Top pick: #7 (LAGUNA GIRL) (5-1) - Lightly-raced daughter of "Henny Hughes" finished second here at this level going 6 furlongs on May 30th in her first race since Oct. 19. Her only poor effort came on a sloppy track and she's finished second in all three attempts of fast surfaces. Draws a nice outside post and stalker can take this at a square price.
2nd pick: #6 (Merry Meadow) (4-1) - Another filly by "Henny Hughes" has finished second in 6 of her 10 starts and has gone 3-0-2-1 locally. Speed/stalker missed by a nose on June 9th at Monmouth and is a win candidate in this spot.
3rd pick: #2 (Fashion City) (7-5) - The probable favorite, debuting daughter of "Bernardini" cost $500K and has been working very fast on the "deep" Saratoga training track since late May. In the Pletcher barn (31% first out) and his main-rider Johnny V. is aboard.
4th pick: #1 (Tapitinsilver) (12-1) - Longshot hasn't raced since late Oct. and will be running in a dirt sprint for the first time. She's working fast at Saratoga for her return, trainer Bill Mott adds blinkers, and she could get a minor award at a big price.
