Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (AUNT BABE) (3-1) - Home bred debuts off a solid work tab dating back to early June. Filly worked a sharp half-mile from the gate at Saratoga Aug. 25 and is from a capable first out barn of Carlos Martin (20%).
2nd pick: #5 (Velvet Trinni) (6-1) - Speedy filly skipped the Saratoga meet and is racing for the first time since July 13. Working fast and she's been given some time to grow and mature. Early speed is always dangerous in these 2-year-old maiden contests and she should factor at a square price.
3rd pick: #8 (Dat's Her) (8-1) - She ships up from Monmouth where she showed early speed before tiring facing 'open' maiden special weights Aug. 20. Back in with fellow New York breds, she raced both wide and evenly when debuting in a grass sprint at Saratoga Aug. 2.
