Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #10 (IMFLATOUTSWEET) (7-2) - Filly is racing third back from a 10 month break. Stretch runner had a rough trip when finishing fourth here at this level going six furlongs Sept. 14. Her barn brings her back quickly, stretches her out a furlong, and home bred looks set for a competitive effort.

2nd pick: #7 (Orzo) (5-1) - From the red hot barn of Rudy Rodriguez, he drops her in class and shortens her up in distance. Strong finisher is racing back into shape and her lone win came here at this distance May 5. Win candidate.

3rd pick: #8 (It's Too Hot Benny) (10-1) - The main speed, longshot catches a field that's a bit short of front end types. Filly drops a bit and is dangerous if allowed to get an uncontested lead in the first half-mile.

4th pick: #1 (Sauvignon) (4-1) - Freshened up since Aug 7, she's taking a big drop in class while shortening up in distance. Fits, has a fine local record 5-1-1-2, and she races in a career soft spot. An obvious contender, but may be over-bet a bit.
