Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (IF YOU BELIEVE) (2-1) - Daughter of 'Hard Spun' drops back down and cuts back in distance following an even 4th place finish going a mile July 8 at Santa Anita. She finished 4th there at this tag and trip June 17 and gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #1 (Always Dangerous) (5-2) - Lightly raced 3yo has been freshened up since June 19. She finished an even 3rd that day facing tougher at Santa Anita. Training both steadily and above average for her return, she has the rail and drops way down in class. An obvious win candidate.
3rd pick: #3 (Buzzer Beater) (3-1) - The high percentage barn of Chris Hartman has found it tough going here outside of his base in the mid-West. Trainer is 0 for 12 at this meet, but has finished 2nd three times in recent days. This grey filly should be closing fast in this spot.
4th pick: #6 (Spread the Joy) (7-2) - Filly enters off a career best when she rallied to finish 2nd here at this price tag July 15. It was her first back off a pair of layoffs and first at this $20K tag. Must be left in the mix.
