Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (STORM PROPHET) (8-5) - Lightly-raced colt is stretching out in distance after rallying while wide to heck in a close up fourth here at this condition traveling seven furlongs June 26. In his only previous start at this 8.5-furlong trip, he broke his maiden on this course last October. Ready to win.

2nd pick: #11 (Chasintheblues) (5-1) - He's been looking for his second win for a long time, but has been competitive in four of his last six starts, all at this level on the grass. Stalker draws a nice outside post and should be involved from start-to-finish.

3rd pick: #10 (Sonnyandpally) (10-1) - Freshened up since May 27, he raced evenly while missing by 4.5 lengths here at this level and distance. Longshot has more natural speed than most and can grab a share at a big price.

4th pick: #4 (Hirschbein) (5-1) - Stretch runner has been competitive in three of five starts at this level since breaking his maiden last Sept. at Saratoga. Grey gelding may need a fast and/or contested pace for anything more than a small slice of this.
