Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (THREE AY EM) (4-1) - Sprinter is stretching out in distance after a pair of solid efforts at this level going 5 furlongs. They were her first two starts on the grass and her best two to date. Leading trainer Doug O'Neill has her set for the stretch out and she can take this at a square price.

2nd pick: #1 (Push Through) (7-2) - A 4yo Reddam home bred by 'Square Eddie', he rallied to finish 2nd here at this level and distance July 28. That ran his local record to 7-1-3-2 and this is his favorite trip 10-2-3-2. An obvious contender.

3rd pick: #2 (Golden Birthday) (3-1) - Gelding drops in class and moves back in with fellow Cal breds after tiring late in a G3 stakes facing 'open' company Aug. 4. He was very sharp in three straight prior to that when facing state breds and is dangerous in this spot.

4th pick: #3 (Appreciated) (10-1) - Lightly raced colt had a wide trip when finishing just a length behind 'Push Through' here July 28. Home bred earned his highest figure to date and has room for upside.
