Top pick: #10 (HURRICANE JACKIE) (5-2) - Filly from the Pletcher barn rallied while wide to finish fourth here at this level when debuting on May 4. She's worked three times since and should like this nine furlong trip. Pletcher wins at a 37% rate second time out and she's the horse to beat.

2nd pick: #9 (Coriander) (8-1) - On the sidelines since Dec. 6, home-bred has been competitive in her first three on the grass, and has more natural speed than most. Working fine, and a major threat if ready with her best.

3rd pick: #2 (Familyofroses) (4-1) - Both lasix and blinkers go on filly who raced wide and evenly here when debuting on May 4. Grey filly is bred to like the longer trip and she draws a nice post from which to save ground early.

4th pick: #8 (Left Uppercut) (30-1) - Longshot has some early speed, and expect her to be sent hard and take them as far as she can. She does have two starts that put her in this, and at a gigantic price.

5th pick: #7 (Chow Fun) (5-1) - Lightly raced, she showed immediate improvement when moved to the grass in her second start, and trainer Bruce Levine has been having a very strong meet.
