Top pick: #6 (PATTY'S PULPIT) - Lightly-raced, home-bred filly has ben freshened-up since racing evenly at Santa Anita in early April racing for $50K. Barn (Craig Dollase) has been sharp here the first few day and he drops this filly down to race for $20K off the 3 1/2 month layoff.
2nd pick: #7 (Pumpkin Pie) - Strong finisher rallied to finish third facing slightly tougher at Hollywood park going 6 furlongs on July 1st. Effort was her best to date and came when trainer Pete Miller added blinkers. Drops to a new low and the extra furlong she travels today is in her favor.
3rd pick: #8 (Cash in Hand) - Drops down after stalking and tiring while racing wide for twice this price at Hollywood park on June 8th. Whatever she has will come out this afternoon.
