Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #9 (MISCHIEVIOUS LASS) (4-1) - Competitive in four of her last five, the filly has finished second in two straight since dropping to this $20K claiming price. Three-year-old races fresh off a Rich Baltas claim (27% angle) and I like her chances.
2nd pick: #8 (Copper Cowgirl) (8-1) - She held down the show spot after a very wide trip here at this tag Aug. 3. Speed/stalker earned her best figure so far and she can factor today at a big price with a minor step forward.
3rd pick: #2 (Tapalita) (7-2) - Speedy sort has been freshened up since June 21. She finished second that day at Santa Anita in her first ever at this $20K tag and is working steadily for her return.
4th pick: #1 (Crackling Bread) (5-1) - She ships from Arlington Park and is racing off a trainer change to Vlad Cerin and a 70-day layoff. She has early speed, has worked fast twice locally, and can be in this every step if ready.
