Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (SPA DUCHESS) (8-1) - Price play tired after a very wide trip acing here at this tag and trip May 18. It was her first since Aug 14 at Saratoga and she probably needed the start. Home bred is making back-to-back starts for the first time in a year and has a shot at long odds.
2nd pick: #2 (Thin Dress) (5-2) - The probable favorite, she raced evenly here facing tougher going longer when debuting May 26. Trainer Bill Mott drops her in class, ads blinkers, and cuts her back in distance. An obvious threat.
3rd pick: #6 (Pleasure Cruise) (6-1) - Four-year-old is racing second back from a six month layoff and first following a Bruce Brown claim. She has early speed and should be involved from gate-to-wire at a square price.
4th pick: #8 (Weekend Hottie) (12-1) - The field's most experienced maiden is not a serious win candidate, but has enough talent to hold down a share in her 3rd start back from a 4.5 month break.
5th pick: #9 (Stevie the Cat) (8-1) - Lightly-raced, she's dropping in class and shortening up in distance. Another with some early speed, 3-year-old draws a good post to use it from.
