Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (MIGHT BE) (6-5) - The morning line favorite, she drops in class following a close up 4th place finish here going a mile in a $200,000 state bred stakes May 28. It was her first start in six months, and she should be much sharper for this attempt.

2nd pick: #6 (Salty Smile) (10-1) - Longshot has gone 5-2-3-0 since late November and was only beaten a 'head' facing $40,000 'open' claimers t this distance May 19 in a contest that was taken 'off the turf.' This daughter of the popular 'Bellamy Road' moves up in class in her first following a John Toscano, Jr. claim and is a threat at a square price.

3rd pick: #1 (Cartwheel) (5-1) - Freshened up since April 22, home bred filly by 'Flatter' was an impressive six-length maiden winner going a mile at Aqueduct last out. The final time was sharp (1:36 flat), and it's noted that this 3yo was bet in earnest last summer in a pair of starts at Saratoga. She has plenty of room for upside and must be left in the mix.
