Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (PLAYRIGHT) (5-2) - He's one of three entered that broke their maiden's here last out. Lightly-raced 5-year-old went gate-to-wire to score by almost 14 lengths at this distance May 26 facing $25K state breds. Gelding by 'Super Saver' is from a winning barn (Dan Gargan) and gets a slight edge.

2nd pick: #7 (Diplodocus) (7-2) - He's taking a big drop in price ($40,000 down to $16K) while switching from turf to dirt. His dirt form is poor but those three starts all came facing much tougher. In a 'hot' barn (Brad Cox), Luis Saez stays aboard, and this 5-year-old gelding should factor today.

3rd pick: #1 (Cookie Crisp) (2-1) - Another that's dropping down and switching from turf to dirt. Speed/stalker has run well on the main track in the past, and in this rather pace-less group he should be involved every step.
