Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (SUMMER READING) (7-2) - $150,000 daughter of 'Hard Spun' just missed (a 'neck') here when debuting at this level and distance Sept. 19th. Trainer Jimmy Jerkens has worked her four times since, and he's adding Lasix. Filly is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #7 (Deltalina) (4-1) - Nice debut Sept. 16th at Kentucky Downs saw her break from the inside in a large field (11) and rate just off the lead. After making a final bid down the stretch, she tired late to check in 3rd, beaten three lengths. An obvious win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (About Face) (10-1) - Grey daughter of 'Blame' raced evenly when debuting in the same Sept. 19th race as 'Summer Reading.' She was only 3 1/2 back of that filly and will get the addition of blinkers from trainer Mark Hennig. She should be involved from start-to-finish.
