Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (CHIEF HOSA) (9-2) - Very quick from the gate, he was beaten a 'neck' here at this level and distance July 21. Three-year-old had the outside post that day (12th of 12) and moves to the rail. He can go wire-to-wire against this group.

2nd pick: #3 (Salient) (5-1) - He exits the same last race as 'Chief Hosa.' He also had a wide trip and tired late after losing a lot of ground on the turn. He has a much better post and can factor at a square price.

3rd pick: #4 (Jet Set Man) (2-1) - The morning line and probable favorite, he was a 'neck' in front of 'Chief Hosa' and 4 lengths in front of 'Salient' last out. However, unlike that pair he had a perfect trip. An obvious factor and he must be left in the same race bets mix.

4th pick: #8 (Eichel) (6-1) - An uncoupled barnmate of 'Salient,' he's consistent at this level on the grass going longer. Capable from a close up spot if able to avoid a wide trip around the turn.
