Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (ZHUKOVA) (2-1) - Irish bred mare makes her second trip to No. America. 5yo was a decisive winner here at this distance May 13 when defeating males in the Man O'War Stakes (G1). She lost her follow up pair in Ireland, but both came in Group 1 events. Gets a slight edge here.

2nd pick: #1 (Grand Gete) (9-5) - One of two entered by Chad Brown, and the pair race as separate betting interests. This English bred filly has gone 4-3-1-0 since coming to No. America in the Spring, and stretch runner is dangerous if 'Zhukova' is sub par.

3rd pick: #3 (Dacita) (3-1) - The second of the Brown trained runners, Chilean import has been freshened up since Aug. 12 when she won the G1 Beverly D Stakes at Arlington Park. Strong finisher has won at Belmont in the past and is a factor with her 'A' game.
