Top pick: #4 (DIVINE PRAISES) (7-2) - Lightly-raced home bred ships in from Churchill Downs where she broke her maiden going 8.5-furlongs June 12. By far a career best, daughter of 'Medaglia d'Oro' was training nicely in Kentucky before shipping here. Believe she has a bright future.
2nd pick: #5 (Mei Ling) (6-1) - Price play has the best early speed and is training sharply for her first since June 5. That was her first in 9 1/2 months and this daughter of 'Empire Maker' is a win threat at a square price.
3rd pick: #2 (Piccolo Flats) (8-1) - One of two multiple winners, filly has been freshened up since May 25. All three career wins have come at this distance and 4yo is 4-2-1-0 here at Belmont.
4th pick: #7 (Delightful Joy) (3-1) - On the sidelines since May 10, lightly-raced filly finished a non-threatening third here that afternoon. Daughter of 'Tapit' is working sharply for trainer Chad Brown who is having an outstanding meet 126-32-22-23. A threat, but think she's going to b e over-bet.
