Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (WAKE UP SMILING) (8-5) - The day's Best Bet, grey filly filly has been competitive in every grass sprint. She's gone 5-0-3-2 in them and enters off a second place finish at this level when going 5.5 furlongs Aug 22 at Saratoga. Four-year-old ran a bit head strong that afternoon and also had some traffic issues. Daughter of 'Distorted Humor' meets a weak group and is the choice to break her maiden.
2nd pick: #1 (Rock Ave. Road) (10-1) - Longshot has early speed and breaks from the rail. Broman home bred has been in some tough fields and can be in this every step at a big price.
3rd pick: #3 (Sabrina's Angel) (4-1) - Debuting filly by turf sire 'Scat Daddy' enters this with seven straight works on the grass. All are at Saratoga and trainer George Weaver is off to a fast start (three for six) at this meet. It's noted that he has Jose Ortiz signed on for this 3-year-old's first attempt.
4th pick: #9 (Dorothy's Dream) (8-1) - Four-year-old raced evenly in her well backed debut Aug 22 at Saratoga. She was only four lengths behind 'Wake Up Smiling' after brushing the gate at the break and racing the widest. Must be left in the mix.
